Keep the site

The number of students at my school has fallen to just under 500 and South appears to be in disarray. The higher ups won't tell us anything. Consequently, this site - with all its flaws - still serves a purpose. I say keep it.

The lure of the "crack" loan money, Jesus or no, is irresistible. Especially when there are no standards or accountability benchmarks to access it.

So why should scheme center change horses in mid stream. Hells bells they'll ride this horse till it drops or the "numbas" run out.

This is the way of the effed up world and Joel "chicklett" Osteen's prosperity theology.

Haven't had a raise in years, still won't see a raise this years.

Equipment is failing, numbers are falling...

We are still "edmc" with a new name, nothing more.

We're under new management now... Numbers, numbers, numbers. Get the Numbers Up At All Cost! Oh, but we're nonprofit now so we can claim to care about the people those numbers represent and that's what makes us different... no change; ship's still sinking.

one thing i never understood is the sanctimonious attitude of these manager types at these for-profits. they tend to be majority male, flaming-trump supporters with "libertarian" pretensions. They are completely oblivious to the fact that their livelihood depends on "government handouts" and ripping off minorities whose patronage they seek to extract their keep and make a living. They must be schizophrenics..

Yes indeed. And one of its purposes is to call out the sanctimonious "haters gonna hate" moran.

After all, I no of nothing quite as hateful as posing as an institution of higher learning when all you've ever been is a expensive lone mill operation. This statement is as evidenced by a history of disgracefully low graduation and retention rates, years of law suits, and tens of thousands of young and old people thrown by the wayside when they could no longer fufill their purpose of filling the coffers of your greed and ill-gotten gains.

So yes haters have every right to hate you all but what's your excuse buddy?
