Hi Cameron -
I hope you are having a great day. I have received your request to host a speaking event for Richard Spencer at the University of Florida. I will be the UF point of contact for you as we work through all the logistics. Could we set up a time tomorrow or Thursday to discuss? On Wednesday I can talk between 8:30 and 11 and Thursday 9-10 or noon to 3. Can you let me know what works for you?
Thanks!

Hi Cameron,
Attached is the quote for rental of the Phillips Center for the Performing Arts. This is based on the setup we discussed (podium with mic and mic in audience). The rental cost for the facility is higher than what you were quoted for space at the Union but the security costs will be substantially lower.
We have put a hold on the Phillips Center on September 12 for your event. We still have a hold on the Grand Ballroom at the Reitz Union that I would like to release if you are comfortable moving to the Phillips Center.
I don't have the security estimate yet but I am trying to get that to you tomorrow. Please let me know if you have any questions.

Ok. Thanks. I am copying Matt Cox, Director of Operations for the Phillips Center for the Performing Arts so you have the contact for the facility.
What is your typical plan to announce a speaking engagement? Our preference would be to coordinate the timeline so the University is best prepared. I am assuming you don't announce until you have signed contracts for space, security etc.
I think we should schedule a call for Monday to talk through your approach to an event like this now that we have confirmation to hold that date for you at the Phillips Center. Right now I'm available from 1pm - 3:30pm. Can you let me know what works for you?
Thanks!

Cameron Padge , the contact for the Na onal Policy Ins tute, has confirmed September 12, 2017 from 7-9pm in the Phillips Center for the Performing Arts.
I have asked him to talk with me on Monday about next steps specifically as it relates to announcing this speaking engagement as he solidifies the facility rental contract. The security es mate is s ll being generated but should be ready for Monday as well.
Feel free to call me if you have any ques ons.

Hi
Thank you for the email. I would be happy to discuss further. Do you have time to meet tomorrow? I am free at 12 and 2:45.
Nancy Chrystal-Green, Ph.D. Executive Director for Student Engagement Division of Student Affairs University of Florida
On Aug 13, 2017, at 5:49 PM,
Hello Dr. Chrystal-Green,
I respect the University's decision to uphold the freedom of speech, but I strongly believe that Richard Spencer's rhetoric has the ability to undermine the work that we are doing here to allow moderate conserva ves to be heard, and feel comfortable enough to express their beliefs. With that being said, I want to fully stand behind our campus community in denouncing his hate, while allowing him the freedom of expression that I value so highly.
I spoke with Jen Gresley in the Department of Housing, and she recommended that I reach out to you, as I desire to be a part of the discussion and to learn more about the administra on's response.
I have been in contact with echo my sen ments. We will all be coordina ng with one another in order to denounce hatred, and stand with the rest of the student body.
Thank you very much for your me.
Respec ully,

Cameron -
I need to postpone our call today at 2pm as we are still determining costs for security measures. Once I have something concrete I'll get back in touch to schedule a call.
Thank you,
Nancy

Mrs. Green,
Thanks for le ng me know. I had a few friends reach out to me that go to UF telling me they got an e-mail form the President of UF basically announcing the date of the event. I know you asked me when we planned on announcing and I said about 5 days before. I know this what out of your control but it was definitely unwise and premature for him to do that. It allows "mob-like" protestors to organize way too far in advance. I don't know his mo ve for doing that so "unwise" may not be the best word. Either way, I appreciate your competency keeping me updated.
The security costs at Auburn were about 2900$. The whole event went very well and there may have been 2 minor arrests for pe y figh ng. As long as the police do their job things actually go quite smoothly. The people protes ng the event are the ones that get disorderly. If there were no protesters that showed up we would literally need maybe one officer. I know that is unrealis c though. Like i said before, we are totally commi ed to full compliance.
Thanks, Cameron
