Here is the president's email address. Keep it civil. Highlight past futile history associated with this AD. If you are thinking about withdrawing or have withdrawn financial support, let him know, and let him know how much.

If we want anything done, this is the most viable way to get it done at this point. Fly has made it abundantly clear that the big donors value a personal relationship with the AD over a winning athletic program. The only response that Everyman the Fan has is through the university president. 

Make it happen.

The UNT Alumni Association is hosting a Fall Reception at Gleneagles Country Club in Plano on Tuesday of next week, October 13th.  President Smatresk will be at the reception.  He will also give a speach, but most of the event will be mingle time.  If folks want to have civil fact-based dialog with him, this could be a good opportunity for some brief face to face time.  The deadline to register is Tuesday of this week, October 6th.  Register at https://www.untalumni.com/regionalreceptions2015 .

In the interest of full transparency, know that though I voluntarily sit on the Collin County steering committee of the alumni association, I'm not employed by the university or anything like that.  I didn't want anyone jumping to any conclusions that I might have an alterior motive for dropping a plug for this event.

I just sent him an email, I made it as professional as possible too. I sure hope he reads it, this is not my first time reaching out to him..

He does in fact run his own Twitter account and while he does not respond to criticism, he does for certain read everything to him. I suggest that as well.

did that too, I saw that Christopher Walker blew up his Twitter page. Good on him.

Ben Gooding and Ryan Munthe are also doing their part on the UNT Facebook page as well.
 Lol

I've got to get some popcorn and read those comments. Lol.

Sent. Hoping that because I'm a student bringing up several good points that he may open his eyes a little more like, Hey.. even students are getting tired of this bull. Maybe I should do something.

[HoustonEagle]

I have sent an email and tweets after the Rice game and will continue.  I have explained how much I have donated to this point and how there will be no more future donations until changes are made.

I am unbelievably twitter illiterate.  I can see Christopher Walker's twitter page, I can see Neal Smastresk's twitter page, but I can see no interaction between the two.

 

Edit: Ah I think I see it.  All the @untprez stuff.

 

Also, which facebook page are they lighting up?  I think I saw one comment by Ben Gooding on the UNT page announcing the loss to Southern Miss

I can't figure it out, either.

Probably a good thing...

the main University of North Texas page. The mean green sports page didn't post any post game reports. Probably got fed up with people complaining about UNT advertising losses.

Not super proud of most of them; too much finger mashing out of Eastside equating to misspellings and bad grammar. Oh well. Hopefully the point is made and I shall be sending an email from my staff account sometime soon that will hopefully be a little more coherent.

[James]

The more emails from official UNT accounts the better.

sorry Chris, wasn't talking about you. I doubt you said anything out of line. Not like I can tell with my very limited Twitter skills.

It's the other 2 I worry about.

Got this reply:

 

Thank you for writing to the president. I will make sure to share your email with him.

 

Please let me know if there is anything further I can do to assist you.

I think you might have better results with Neal.smastresk@unt.edu rather than he generic president address. at least, that has been my experience. 

[FirefightnRick]

Let's hope Adrian has learned from her previous stupid mistakes.....like actually forwarding your email to the president and NOT to rv.

 

Yeah....that really f%€king happened.

I would suggest actually writing mail. The amount of email he gets is insane. He gets far less physical mail and may be more likely to open/read it. At least this is the route I'm taking.

I will have to think about the association meeting over night.  Getting to Plano by 6:30 would require me take off work or leave 2 hours early at the least.  What is the address I can send a physical letter too?  I will definitely do that.

Edit:  If you're gonna go the physical snail mail route, I would suggest using certified mail with a read receipt.  That forces them to acknowledge that it arrived, and gives you knowledge that it got there and somebody at least had to glance at the envelope.

I know from from some political friends that hand written letters to Congress get the strongest results. You can't mass produce those like you can emails. A hand written letter means someone was concerned enough to sit for several minutes and concentrate.
