Passle,

The thing is that the Seeing Eye stuff is old now.  It seems to me that
there is no sense in writing unless there are problems with what they did.

Buddy,

I was only talking about the staff lay off at Seeing Eye and GDB not about
the communication issues at GDB.  Sorry I wasn't clear on my last post.

pattern of detrimental behavior eroding trust and lines of communication
with graduates. Seeing Eye has no such pattern, and its reasons for the
staff cuts are pretty clear, where GDB's are not at all clear. Nor are they
seeming to make any effort towards remedying this. Inthis economic client, I
don't think anyone would fault staff cuts if they're needed, as rotten for
some people as they may be. Again, I think there's a bigger issue at play
with GDB.
