OMG - ECPO Year Plan meeting still trying to sell SLS 1105 and their "student focused" new class format is "ground breaking". It makes me gag. The information within this class is not only 10 years outdated but it also is incorrectly applied to help... — read more

Happy Holidays to all of you. I hope 2015 will be a good year for all us.

no town hall meetings. Canadian school sale to GSI still moving. ECMC is still interested in the CA schools but CA AG is not changing her mind. Stacy in HR mentioned that the close date may move from 1/5 to 1/12 because of the holidays, sorry... — read more 

Prepare for the mother of all enemas in an attempt to finally rid CCi bowels of unparalleled levels of filth. Flush twice if you see high level "leadership", crooks, thugs, liars, bullies, cheats, blow hards and buffoons swirling amongst the putrid... — read more 

Something to do with just scheduled, emergency Town Hall meetings at all locations. I have no idea why they are so last minute or important, but something's up. Or else someone really high up (JM?) could have just ordered a Town hall to dole out more... — read more

I didn't get any courses in the last term due to low enrollment. I have been told that enrollment is actively happening so I am curious if anyone (online adjunct) has received any classes for the 1/12/15 start date?

Defending CCI is the same mind-set needed to defend Ted Bundy! All of you who are hoping for your former manager to bring you along with them when they leave are SHT outta luck. Every man for himself!

Yes, Jack and the Execs along with the Divisions and RVPs fly around the country like Santa Clause everyday changing everything. Jesus Christ! Oh and add all the SVPs and Santa Ana. Quite the incredible conspiracy. So F$&@ stupid! Trolls!

I agree 2015 is going to be a fresh start and all of our emotions can be put away. I do have one question to ask, and I hope to get a truthful answer. Everyone says that we ripped off the minority students and that we prayed on the uneducated... What... — read more

I am interested in understanding the rationale for sticking around with all of this uncertainty

One year ago (1) I thought I worked for a reasonable company. Certainly not admirable, but I thought at least we were in the ballpark of ethical standards in the industry. (2) I really believed that most of our students' lives were positively... — read more 

What exactly are 'instructor rankings' in the Comp Sci online dept? RT is requiring this from PLs. Is it based on actual teaching or on outreach, retention, failure rates (most of which are out of instructor control)?

They are cutting at campus level.....just over heard today.

Hey, what a great board you have going here! I wish I'd found it months ago! So, sharing info, gossip, reminiscing, having a few laughs, commiserating with each other...this is great! Some of you sound like a lot of fun, I wish there was a way to... — read more 

Face it, it's Christmas week and we are all exhausted after 7 months of not knowing what the hell is going on with our jobs! "The Harlot Pimpernel" from Socle posted a roast of her boss (DS) and I think it'll cheer you up. If you're like me, it'll... — read more

Did you guys have to go through that? Did you just start getting bombarded with ads for it on this site? WTF??? I think I did my SLII in the friggin' late 90's. I had no idea that Ken Blanchard was still trying to peddle that load of dribble!

Congratulations and good luck in the future.

I've been at Socle about a year now, and I really would like an answer to some questions I have about this guy. He is the most messed up manager I've ever worked for by far! So, for those of you old-timers (SFS): 1. How in the heck did DS get his... — read more
