Do the staff at "Zenith" (former CCi employees) really believe that Zenith will continue to operate? How sad for you. ECMC doesn't want you or the schools, this was all part of a much bigger plan that Hawn has. ECMC made a deal with the devil (DoE)... — read more
Wanted: Transcripts of Last Week Town Hall Meetings
will pay top $
Is it TRUE?? EUO
Did Tina, Dara and all upper management get Riffed!!! What about the Deans and PDs? They finally figured out that they had no clue on what to do! Are her minions still there too? Because of Tina, many faculty, PLs, and PDs lost their jobs.
Joke of the day: Clueless CP asks how round tables went...
So we have this mistake of a new hire Campus President that asks how the round table talks went. Seriously? First the laughingstock RVPO and HR watch dog hold the round table circus then the CP later asks how the masses felt the talks went? Oh my... — read more
Stop Harassing the Instructors and let us do our Jobs
The OP is correct about the 24-hour timeframe for grading. Midnight Sunday to midnight Wednesday is 72 hours, but subtract 24 hours for sleeping (8 hours/night), 9 hours for showering, bathroom breaks, lunch, and dinner breaks (3 hours/day), and 3... — read more
The Riff list.
Me.
Congratulations
to the people who say they are faculty and trash each other. They dumbed down this forum almost to the same extent they dumbed down the classrooms with exclamation points, cartoons, and overzealous assertions of empathy. AWKWARD to be anywhere near... — read more

Useless PDs and PLs, braindead Deans
Fired everyone of them! They are useless and clueless Save momoney and save Zenith. Let the faculties teach!
Who was the nasty PL who bashed the faculty on yesterday's call?
I want to make sure I never ever work with her. Did anyone get her name? The one who went on and on about our grading practices and how we don't enforce APA formatting? Has she ever tried grading 200 essays in 24 hours? This is why the faculty hates... — read more
I am very sorry
There were some great instructors were fired because of Tina S.and other crooks. You spoke your mind too early. Sorry. We miss you.
Campus Support Center - Santa Ana
Is anyone still working at the Campus Support Center in Santa Ana or has that been closed down?

RVPO Sam Lynn DISSED in public and took it
So just a show of how the campuses support the "leadership" of Zenith and idiot practices. In a townhall whatever meeting Sam Lyn was playing Ringmaster of the dog and pony circus. While he was saying how great we are now a group of nursing... — read more
Excellent play, Mr. Hawn! Now, Which Came First: Dumbing Down the Online Classroom or Admitting Functionally Illiterate Adults?
You have everyone's attention. Why not cut to this chase?
Online faculty has been threatened with coaching on Friday
Grading - IMPORTANT - NEED TO READ Good Morning Faculty, I have a concern within the classroom as we approach Week 9. Please see below: Grading MUST be done by Wednesday 11:59PM MST of each week. When I pull the report this Thursday – I should see no... — read more
Mike Lano-lets not newest idea:

Zenith will cease voluntary adherence to Gainful Employment rule
SOS is saving students who don't have the skills to complete a degree or get/keep a job. But Zenith damn sure loves the grants and loans tagged to those students. Even though Hawn and Stovall agreed to voluntarily adhere to the Gainful Employment... — read more

Round table talks ranks right along with SOS mentality
Round table discussions at the campus level, let's dissect. Held by RVPO's that campus level line staff want removed. Temperature check of the campus. Get real. No employees will ever truly speak their mind to company Koolaid RVPOs and damn sure not... — read more
Hawn Charms NPR and Inside Higher Ed at National Council for Higher Education Resources Conference

Fresh from the CP call this week-
Tina S who doesn't know her ass from Hawns is now the Provost over all campuses - that alone is a death knoll and RIFs already slated for the coming weeks. This is worse than watching the second plane hit the tower. This BS could be prevented the... — read more
Well, I'm heading out...it was nice knowing all of you.
I got a look at the new RIF list and yours truly is on it (thankfully, there are a few less people on it than last time, at least here). So I guess I'll pack up my things and go home to have a few stiff drinks. I worked with some great people at... — read more
So, why are we still using the name Everest when its reputation is irredeemable?
So, we are going to re-brand the Everest name, is that the understanding? My guess is that Hawn and crew came up with the stupid Zenith name when they were drunk, then test marketing showed that people thought it was stupid and associated it with the... — read more
Any idea which of the submissions got picked?
I'm wondering which of the submissions for excellence were chosen to have the $25K implementation. My guess is it's all BS and the winners will basically be operational things that we already do. Still, would anyone be willing to share what their... — read more
New ad better than old ads
If you haven't watched it, check out our new ad. Sooooo much better than the old CCi ghetto ads. Unfortunately, it's the only improvement I've seen so far, except getting rid of a few RVPs who did absolutely nothing. Hawn - get rid of the leftover... — read more
I don't understand why anybody is still there. Seriously, I just can't grasp that this company still has employees!
Could someone give me some insight into why you are still at Zenith (AKA Everest the Sequel)? I was let go around a year ago, just before the $hit hit the fan. In my five years there I saw a lot of RIFs, firings (usually the best people), and... — read more
The Countdown is on for WyoTech

What is going on with the Florida campuses, EUO, and Socle?
