Just got off the phone with one of the organizers for the event on the 26th which is now becoming a pretty large event. It's been moved to The Wilma, and I'm told that AD Kent Haslam and President Seth Bodnar will also be part of the panel.
Missoula Rises reached out to me today because they're building up questions for their forum and wanted to make sure that they pull in questions/discussion points from all aspects. I was asked to put this up and solicit some feedback from Griz Nation.
So here's your chance, post away. I'll forward the thread (or I assume some MR people are egrizzers and/or check the forum).
EDIT: Adding info here from Erin Erickson, the organizer:

EDIT: Adding info here from Erin Erickson, the organizer:
On February 26th Missoula Rises is hosting a panel discussion with University of Montana to explore the topics of sexism, sexual assault, entitlement, cyber-bullying and perceptions surrounding those issues within UM Athletics. We will have the unique opportunity to listen, learn and hopefully work together to move our community forward in a positive and accountable way.
Among others, joining us in that discussion will be:
President Seth Bodnar,
UM Athletic Director Kent Haslam,
UM Griz Football Coach, Bobby Hauck
Drew Colling, UM SARC
Lisa Davey, creator of the petition to demand UM not re-hire Coach Hauck
Brint Wahlberg, member of E-Griz, online fan forum
Because Missoula Rises is here to represent YOUR VOICES in the community, we want to know what you would like ask of this panel? If you have a question for a specific panelist, make sure to note that. Please post your questions as a comment below. We are also doing the same in the E-Griz forum to ensure we get a good cross-section of ideas and questions. We will be formulating our questions based off your input.
We are very much looking forward to your ideas and inquiries.
February 26, 2018. Panel starts at 7:00 pm sharp, goes to 8:30pm.
The event will be held at the Wilma.
