Thread regarding ITT Educational Services Inc. layoffs

What's with this Director/Dean I keep seeing? Unless the director has a Masters that won't fly with ACICS .

And as we know most campus directors only have bachelor degrees because they're not educators, the come from CS or recruiting

Get this...the POS director from the Murray, UT campus was once the book store clerk!

False.

My previous director(who still works for ITT), only had a Bachelors degree. Has been with the company 7 years.

Masters is preferred.

My current director has a MBA and he still is a clueless snake in the grass.

I did have one director/dean that was an educator -- knew a lot -- even had a PhD in education from Capella, the favorite graduate school of ITT-Tech employees.

Which led to some of the most bizarre and creepy experiences I had as a faculty -- because since he got bumped up from chair to director/dean he says totally different things to different people. Especially about the short-comings of the curriculum. One of his favorite sayings "but we never tell the students that!" At heart he is really a salesman, I swear!

I told him this last quarter I wasn't going to teach here anymore -- didn't tell him that it is like working in a fun house -- the kind with all the twisty mirrors so nothing appears as it really is.

All directors have masters degrees.

Directors are not required to have a Masters degree. Bachelor or higher. I would imagine if the campus has Director/Dean, the one with the Masters degree has this position and the other one was let go.

Where on earth do you people come up with your information? A Director of Education/Dean must have a Bachelors degree or higher.

"managed to run off and reduce our staff and students to nothing."

He probably got a bonus from HQ

We had a director without a master's degree and he and great hires for recruiting managed to run off and reduce our staff and students to nothing.

Moot point. Who cares ? They lumped all kinds of positions together in the last 6 months. Dean/Director/Registrar/DOF.

Not concerned abt degree qualifications. All ITT employees were plug-n-play drones for a greedy top few.

Simple as that. Embrace that capitalism ITT is a sterling example of how absolute power corrupts absolutely. Greed over ethics. It only wins for awhile, then the run is over.

A sad example of how NOT to run a gainful corporation, unless you want an example of how to run it into the ground.
