CCi continues to make layoffs as they cut costs. But they still have money for Parthenon. What makes this Parthenon story even more enraging is that CCi has held the event at Mt. Vernon, where George Washington enslaved men and women. Today, there is another form of bondage, debt peonage, that is destroying the lives of former students and their families. A large number of these people are people of color, almost all are from the working classes..... http://adjunctjustice.tumblr.com/post/78770217174/corinthian-colleges-2014-parthenon-to-be-held-at

NYB-Read the story he is referring to in his post. He writes that last year it was held in DC. 2013 was held in Dallas. GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT.
Camdenkid is not on the money about anything. The article is full of nonfactual information gotten from some disgruntled hack. Been to the last 7 Parthenons, and not once was the reason Parthenon is held was mentioned. It is a thank you for the top % of the company's employees and serves as a annual national meeting. I am guessing that you have never been to one.

Ann 6311- Parthenon WAS in DC in 2011 AND it will be there this year...Get YOUR facts straight. Camden Kid is right on the money!
If you are going to knock historical places in the US that are tied in some way to slavery that hold corporate events to operate and stay open to educate the public, you have a very long list to get working on.
First of all, Parthenon was not held at Mt. Vernon last year, it was held in Dallas, get your facts straight and quit depending on the opinions of people who have an ax to grind.
