However, when faced with what could be a moment that defines whether the activity as a whole will survive, maybe it's time to make that change and give the oversight authority needed to the executive director of dci. There are only so many hits an activity the size of Drum Corps can take. When faced with adversity, an organization has ultimately 3 choices: (1) Adapt, (2) Migrate, or (3) Die In a related scandal, MSU just settled w/ Nassar victims for $500M https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/16/us/larry-nassar-michigan-state-settlement.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HockeyDad Posted May 16, 2018 Share Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) I'm sorry to dwell on this, but ... the guy who allowed a predator to be his assistant corps director; the guy who apparently didn't find it necessary to inform the MMs or parents of this fact; the guy who didn't act until the Philadelphia Inquirer apparently shamed him into it; is also the chairman of DCI's Board of Directors? The man we are supposed to trust to lead drum corps out of this? How amazingly tone deaf and flat out stupid. Why isn't Morrison gone? Today.

Morrison said he had resigned effective May 1. I had heard about this coming back in April. The question is when did the genesis director speak to Moody. That is what we do not know. Although it is possible that Joel was lying. To save face. To prevent news from getting out before xmen communicated. Or something.

You know, if they haven't figured this out all on their own by now, we're in a world of hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps it only happened last week, when the heat started to get turned up by my now-favorite newspaper reporter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and Nadolny had already written that much in her article: "Moody, 39, who also did not respond to repeated interview requests, last week told the director of a nearby corps he plans to be on tour this summer, per usual."

Besides corps directors or assistants RARELY resign/quit just before ST. Edited May 17, 2018 by Liahona Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
