The only people who know what happens in executive sessions are the board members, and they aren't supposed to talk about it with anyone. It is very disturbing if what was said or done in executive sessions is being gossiped about; the minutes for executive sessions should show when the board went into and out of the executive session, motions made, votes taken, and motions passes, but nothing else, and no one on the board should be talking about it. I've been on boards where we didn't even allow board members to take personal notes during executive sessions. Every board I have served on it was grounds for removal to discuss what was said in executive sessions.
