It has been brought to attention that some schools feel they have to use our assigner's company, or the quality of their assigned officials will suffer. I don't think this is true, but the perception exists. As a Board member, I feel it should be addressed. However, if I bring it up, MY schedule will definitely suffer.

If a school doesnt like it let them go to the person who appointed him. Or show up to one of your meetings and tell the assigner in person. Frankly, unless the assigner is making comments or threats or actually has a history of assigning bad officials to schools who dont buy from him i wouldnt say anything. seems like a stretch to me too.
