Best statement of the letter. Common sense. Proceed and prepare as if it is going to happen. Easier to cancel than to 'uncancel'.

"Our membership voted in an overwhelming positive response for the leadership of ATSSB to begin this process and that is exactly what we are doing. If we need to cancel this event due to the pandemic, we will do that in the best interests of our students. If we need to cancel this event because leadership of ATSSB was unprepared to make it happen, that is unacceptable."
