WCC: Trustee Retreat

The Washtenaw Voice, Washtenaw Community College’s student newspaper, reports that WCC president Larry Whitworth plans to investigate the $4,023 dinner tab from last month’s two-day trustee retreat at the Westin Book Cadillac hotel in Detroit. The bill included nearly $600 for wine. “The food was good; the service was good, but I think they overcharged us and this is something I will watch very, very carefully in the future. … I think there were implications that somehow the trustees were arranging this to have a big whoop, and that isn’t, in fact, that case.” The restaurant disputes the claim that WCC was overcharged. The total cost for the retreat was nearly $10,000. [Source]
