This is ridiculous. Who hires a campus "President" who doesn't even know what the meaning behind it is? We NEVER see her, except maybe the 5 minutes she makes her grand appearance in orientation?! She has flat out turned away students with lies saying "this was never brought to my attention," when we know for a fact it was. You have students ready to drop out because the life of the school aka our FORMER dean resigned, the lack of communication on this companies/staff behalf, and overcrowding in the classrooms.. It feels like we will walk up 1 day and there will be chains on the doors. You have some of the best faculty resigning because of the layoffs of other PDs/ the instructors, the "President" better known around here as Morticia, is that REALLY the type of name you want to continue to set for this company? An incompetent person running a business, losing great instructors, and students who have busted their butts to get this far? For what? I would never recommend this school to anyone unless changes were made and they brought NeSmith back but as President, at least he gets things done, is actively involved with the school, and knows how to actually run it for the win! If you think this has no impact on the current students then you are very blind.

Go say hi to Pizon
I didnt met the Dean Derek, but, I never heard anything positive about him from those who I talked to after I left. Brandon used to be a great campus, it had its problems, but, I can honestly say the students always came first. To see a student posting on this site I guess is a testament to how bad things really are there now. Sorry OP that you chose Everest just to end up disappointed. Brandon used to really be a fun place to be, sorry you miased it!
OP - you have made two errors: 1. Enrolling at CCI/Zenith. 2. Believing that the campus president has any concern about you. Sorry if this is harsh - the truth sometimes stings. If you are a recent enrollee, bail out now and cut your losses. If not, pray that the campus closes before going to teach out so your loans are forgiven
The houses are being cleaned. By the end of the year all the houses will be cleaned out.
@215, this is what I've been saying for months. We still have a lot of housecleaning to do. Turn in the cheaters--you know who they are.
If you want to make a difference then call the hotline. There are one for employees and students. Don't waste your time on here and expect anything to change or items to be looked into. Nothing will change unless you voice your concerns to the appropriate places/people.
There is a Hot line number for students to call. Ask for it and voice your complaints as well....might have better results there.......
797 all the crap will be leaving soon and you're a piece of it too.
Pizon!!!! Or maybe the joke of a DOA reject CCi RVPA Dee. Crawl back under your rocks.
350/ I agree, I like how Derek uses "as a student" to start his post, to throw us off. What a shit
This is ridiculous, no one and i mean no one in this campus misses the dean, this post and many of the response posts are written by Derek himself. Or maybe the ridiculous registrar who remains. I don't have an opinion on the president, she seems alright, I have at least seen her after 5 o'clock which I never ever saw the Dean or previous President. But I have taught here as an adjunct a while and Derek was terrible and never did anything or made any decisions. I keep my head down and teach students, but I do pay attention around and see for the first time, the crap leaving and the dean was a part of that
704: This is the kind of attitude that will put Zenith out of business. I thought OP was well spoken and brought up legitimate concerns. I hope OP bring his/her concerns to the local authorities and/ or the local news. It will no longer be a whining. OP, I hope you continue to express your concerns here and more importantly to the aforementioned entities.
Agree with OP from a faculty viewpoint: she is worthless. We cried when Derek left but will applaud when she leaves. We refer to her as "The B"and Morticia. Boyfriend Sam is Lurch.
Sounds like the standard operating procedure for CCi.....I mean Zenith schools. Working hard at avoiding students to ensure that $100K salary keep coming!
Who has time for you whining students. Get over it and get to class.
attorney Cathie Orazi. She manages complaints on personnel like that. Leave her a message each day until she returns the call.
We didn't have a president say hi in our orientation last week.
