January 17, 2003 Received a request for Brenda and Chris to meet with Amit Chakma on the 20th at 10am. Initially this request was agreed to. Upon discussion with the GM and all executive, we agreed that we should not meet unless we had access to counsel and we were given an agenda. When this request was made (to move the meeting date and that we receive an agenda) we were told that we didn't need an agenda and that if we refused to meet with them immediately, that Amit would have to make a unilateral decision. We also became aware that this meeting was to occur with other parties present (Lois Claxton and Denis Huber). We offered to meet later that day, or later in the week, but were met with refusal and told we would be receiving a letter by the end of the day outlining his decision. Received letter later that day from Amit indicating that our ability to serve alcohol in our establishments was being indefinitely suspended at midnight on January 20th. We advertised this situation to students, hoping for their support at the Bombshelter that night.
