[Imc-supervisors] Can we have a mediated discussion?

[carol ammons]

Good afternoon,

I have requested that a couple of other folk attend who are not immersed in
the on-going conflict.  This request is for balance.  If no one is available
to attend today, then I would like to re-schedule for the beginning of
September.
