NSCCEA Pushes For Resolution

Nearly sixty-three days have passed since the Octo­ber Board of Trustees Meet­ing when Pro­fes­sional and Sup­port Staff mem­bers of the North­west State Com­mu­nity Col­lege Edu­ca­tion Asso­ci­a­tion (NSCCEA) issued a vote of ‘No Con­fi­dence’ in the Pres­i­dent and his Cab­i­net for rea­sons of a long-standing pat­tern of cen­tral­ized decision-making, lack of account­abil­ity from upper-level man­age­ment, and the fail­ure to honor shared agree­ments.

Since the first days of Octo­ber, there has been no insti­tu­tional response from either the Pres­i­dent or the Cab­i­net mem­bers, and the NSCCEA is con­cerned that the col­lege is locked into a pro­longed lead­er­ship cri­sis. On Fri­day, , the Board of Trustees will hold its next reg­u­lar meet­ing at 1:00 p.m. at Defi­ance Regional Med­ical Cen­ter, 1200 Ral­ston Avenue, Defi­ance. At Friday’s meet­ing, the NSCCEA will call upon the Board to act to encour­age the Col­lege Pres­i­dent and Cab­i­net mem­bers to work with their Pro­fes­sional and Staff Employees.
