How does ol' GC, and the board, think this will make the strife between the two colleges any better? Instead of finding ways to bring both together, he's allowing actions that further wedge the two apart. This "promotion" is not warranted in the least! And talk about administrative bloat. This is not what's best for the district, the college or those they're marketing to, the students.

It doesn't. Wouldn't it make more sense for her dept. to just hire 2-3 more permanent staff, ya know, the people who would actually do the work? Her large sallary increase would cover half that cost.<br /><br />This looks like nothing more than a self serving move that won't be solving any problems.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16908834.post-22422395293488093212016-05-18T12:32:43.037-07:002016-05-18T12:32:43.037-07:0012:03 is right.

That seems rather inflated. Actually, a lot inflated. is this over the course of a year, or constantly ongoing? If we all added up every single little thing we are asked to do, we'd all have 600 items in the cue. The only difference is most of us just get the job done, rather than talk about all the work we have to get done.
