Last Thursday nights McHenry County College Board meeting was broadcast live.

To people sitting out in the hall who could not fit into the relatively small MCC boardroom.

There were more people at the board meeting than I have ever seen attend before.

After all, this was the meeting that Donna Kurtz and Scott Summers were to be censured by their fellow board members.

Don't you love collegiality?

There were a fair number in the hall when I walked into the crowded, standing room only boardroom, but only four when I followed a member of the public out to get his name.

I asked if the meeting were being recorded and was told that it wasn’t.

Can you believe that an MCC employee spent all night following the action with a television camera, but no one stuck in a tape to make a record of the meeting?

Of course I can.

The college board doesn’t want electronic records of its meetings.

That’s why at least two individuals, maybe three, were pointing recording devices at those speaking during the board meeting.
