AHS incompetence noticed
This blog began nearly six years ago with the position that a science museum should not have been transferred to the Arizona Historical Society. Over the years, it became clear that the problem is far greater than first anticipated because the AHS is not even capable of planning and operating a successful history museum. Money is not the problem. Taxpayers have provided funds by the tens of millions of dollars, but the result has always been the same. Overly ambitions plans, developed at incredible cost, resulted in complete failure.
The author of this blog has not been the only taxpayer to notice the ongoing waste of public funds. The continuing and escalating conflict over the unnecessary destruction of the mineral museum is drawing more and more attention to the severe limitations of the AHS. The March 21 post on www.cammaz.net is yet another example of this growing awareness.

Maybe the AHS Board would notice the waste of taxpayers funds. Considering they never even get a chance to vote on these issues.
ReplyDeleteSomebody tell me how they can do that.
When the Centennial mess first started, the MMM was given to the AHS and we were told that all was well, they were the best at running museums. What a crock that turned out to be. Attendance goes down, but they get to keep the millions taxpayers have to part with each year. AHS doesn't have to justify what they did, well not with anything coherent.
ReplyDeleteThey do spend taxpayer money on lobbyists who work hard to keep the students and teachers from regaining a prized science museum.

Correct me if I am wrong but isn't the AHS Lobbyist related to one of the former AHS Board Presidents? Cozy!
DeleteThere was a Sunset Review issue about it awhile back. I heard that now the lobbyist has a new company that has key Ducey fundraisers aboard and use their political clout behind the scenes. Anyone know anything about this?
DeleteWoosley is only using Trimble. Can someone tell Trimble please?
ReplyDeleteI will say this for Trimble. At least he has books published. Dr. Ann Woosley has one of the Arcadia Press photo softback books published with photos and captions. Her staff pulled the photos for her from the library.
