Lines of communication and flow of information between offices is often considered insufficient or inadequate. Physical space allocated to various offices often is inadequate for the services provided or location of space does not reflect important functional relationships that exist between various offices. The first sentence defines issues as concerns that in some cases affect all services or groups of three or more offices, leaving it to others to think up a name for those concerns that in all cases affect some services or groups of offices of any number. The latter require definition as much as the former, that is, not at all, but recognition of that truth would have shortened not only the memo but the task of the Task Force, and there'd be no getting to the water-cooler through that crowd. And so, having devised a definition neither useful nor needed, Clay blithely ignores it later in the same sentence and ends up saying that some concerns are issues but that some issues are not issues.
Some people have to be told why they are reading a memo.
This college has been here for more than half a century. The taxpayers might notice issue number one above, which reveals that our administration has not yet discovered who should tell whom to do what. That's an issue that can be settled in thirty seconds unless you have a Task Force. That much, of course, can be said of a thumb firmly pressed to the nose, and we hope that those who teach his children have standards less self-serving. Even that feeble excuse, however, cannot be made for items two and four.
