There were at least 12 occasions last week when University President William Powers spoke publicly and needed either notes or a fully-written speech, said Tom Zigal, the president's chief speechwriter.

Zigal is a member of the "Morning Group," a group of six key staff members in the president's office who meet once a week to keep the office functioning.
