“To be bothered...”

All “fans” have to do is become a pain in the everyday lives of the top members, and that will be bring about change. Just a simple flood of phone calls would be enough. Plus the billboard. Consistent pressure. It would then mean that the fans were beginning to see them as a part of the problem. And that perception begins to affect their day to day.....

That's the roadmap

Ex Officio means "by virtue of one's position", so these are people who are there because their position is automatic, such as the people from the Alumni Association and the "Citizen's Board". Frenk has power and the Alumni Association people have power, but the Citizen's Board positions are not going to have much impact on Athletics.

The regular and senior members are more active (in addition to the chairs and vice-chairs obviously). However, it does look like the senior membership is largely made up of big donors, so while they might be powerful, I'm not sure how frequently they participate. The emeriti membership are largely made up of famous people or people with big accomplishments (for instance Alfy Fanjul and his brother Pepe own one of the Big Sugar companies), but I don't see a bunch of names that match up to campus buildings (except for Bernie). I'm not sure the emeriti people have much power or participation, particularly as it relates to Athletics. Emeriti means they have probably done something in the past, I think Carlos de la Cruz was a prior chair of the BoT. Not sure that they vote, but I'm sure they get all the announcements and minutes.

Bottom line is that even if only a handful of people on the BoT have the real impact, it doesn't hurt to pressure as many of them as possible. They talk. Any of them will be annoyed to be reminded that they have a responsibility that they have shirked.
