The Friends of Hunter have not been unsympathetic to the plight of the people remaining in Hunter. Though the earthquake risk in Hunter is more a result of a change in earthquake code rather than the state of the building, FoH has pointed out before the hypocricy of the university only partially evacuating Hunter.

The university knows that the fewer people occupying Hunter, the less vocal will be the complaints over its own blatent neglect of the fabric of Hunter.
