Happy Faculty Appreciation Week

I got an email telling me it’s faculty appreciation week and I should reach out to my local campus leadership to find out what they are doing. I haven’t heard from local leadership in over a year. I’m not even sure who is still around. They announced... — read more 

Glint, no action

We give up. For all the excitement and feedback provided guess no action from Glint. Are no leaders brave?

Some faculty will ride it down to the end

Well --- I'm a former faculty member, starting at a local campus and then going online. For a long time we had a great reputation here, with many dedicated faculty. We put out a good product. The downfall of UoP came, in my opinion, with the rise of... — read more

What UOPX the company needs....

Faculty needs to band together and do a walk out. Given the disrespect, increase in class size and decrease in quality. Stand united and walk out. You need to be treated better. When our instrutor told us about how they are treated, dang. Not good.

Bad (old) news on student enrollment

Why are you still working at UoP?

I worked for UoP for nearly 10 years. Why are you folks still working there? You obviously know how horrible it is. The grass is much greener outside of that life-s---ing place. Granted, 5 weeks vacay, and a steady paycheck is hard to let go of, but... — read more

Staffing shortage

Is being woefully understaffed part of the overall strategy. Academics cant work their own students. Finance is never availble. Calls last 45 minutes cant even notate before the next one comes in, unsustainable!

When do the exec’s, VP’s and upper management go?

It’s obvious to everyone that this company is going down fast. When do we start laying off VP’s (any one of the 100 we have) or upper management? Cut the fat already!!!

ASU or GCU

Honestly, I hope either one of these schools buy UoPhx and take over. They could keep most employees and it’s resources to expand. That would be awesome! Brian Muller or Michael Crow if your listening, come save us!

What we have lost....

What we lost as a company are ethics and a care for our employees. If you care for employees they will take take of the company. Fact. Leaders have lost their integrity.
