An open forum being held by UCF President John C. Hitt has been cancelled.
President Hitt notified students via email of the cancelled event, stating that an SGA event on the same day conflicts with the forum. The forum was supposed to be on Oct. 16 and it was not immediately clear if it was going to be rescheduled.
Vice Presidents Maribeth Ehasz (Student Development and Enrollment Services), Al Harms (Strategy, Marketing, Communications & Admissions), Dan Holsenbeck (University Relations), and Bill Merck (Administration & Finance) were also planning to be in attendance.
The event conflicting with the open forum is a “Fireside Chats” meeting — an event held by Student Body President Melissa Westbrook as a way to update the Student Body of the administration’s current achievements and future endeavors. The event itself will be taking place in the Student Union Room 221 from 12 p.m. to 2 p.m. on October 16, 2013.
