Glasgow Teacher Building to close

Stumbled upon this today, whilst searching for other news:
https://www.theiet.org/membership/member-news/47a/teacher-building-2018.cfm



Bit dissapointing to see that the only IET venue in Scotland is closing before they have found a suitable alternative?

Seems rushed and cost based to me, appreciate that perhaps the upkeep vs use is not economically viable, however we pay the same fees as everyone else so what are we getting in return?

Savoy place is a cutting edge building, clearly a lot is spent on its upkeep and advancement, but us poor souls all the way up here in Scotland hardly benefit from this at all.


Its one thing that a single building located in the central belt covers the whole of Scotland but another to close it before an alternative is found?

Have the London contingent forgotten us?  Perhaps we should vote for independance from our Savoy Place masters?!! laugh


With this and the recent decision to close the email alias service, it seems another benefit being lost to members.

    Graeme,

    The thread is on IET Scotland North - last post I can see being mine on 2nd July 2017 - so now an 'old' story. Still worth reviewing the comments/objections/etc., to gauge the strength of feeling.
