Correction; Mr. Tod's wild ride

     Earlier, I posted an article announcing Kevin Walthers' appointment to the presidency of Allan Hancock College. Contrary to what I implied, Tod Burnett was not in the running for that job.
     The confusion was caused by Walthers' being the current president of Las Positas College, where Burnett is a finalist for Superintendent of the Chabot/Las Positas Community College District. (Don't know how I got this so confused.)
     Sorry for my confusing confusion.

     Burnett is still in the running at Cabrillo, as far as I know. I do believe that the Cabrillo board will make their decision in June.
     Things look mighty dicey for Burnett at Chabot/Las Positas. The BOT is offering the job to the other candidate, Ms. Jackson. Of course, she might turn them down. Not likely.
     Tod lost out to other candidates in the two remaining positions for which he was a finalist, listed below.

Did Tod Burnett even go for the Alan Hancock job?

No, I don't think Burnett applied for the Hancock job; my error

Why are both presidents trying to get new jobs? What do they know that we do not?

Roy Bauer said...

Once again, there is no evidence (that I can find) that Glenn is job hunting.

Too bad.
