Wayland school chairman regrets e-mail gaffe

Metrowest Daily News 1/14/10: Wayland school chairman regrets e-mail gaffe. School Committee Chairman Louis Jurist said he regrets sending an e-mail to his fellow committee members on Tuesday about the budget for the upcoming 2010-11 school year. "As soon as I sent it, I said to myself, 'What did I do?"' Jurist said yesterday. "If there was a 10-second delay after you pressed the send button in which you could take back an e-mail, it would have never been sent." In the e-mail, Jurist was forwarding a message from a Wayland resident who had suggestions about the budget for the 2010-11 school year, with Jurist adding his own thoughts. He sent it to the other School Committee members and inadvertently to another party. Jurist said he did not believe sending the e-mail was a violation of the state's Open Meeting Law, as he did not receive any responses from the other committee members. Responses could have constituted a deliberation.
