university of virginia uh... has reinstated teresa sullivan as the
president of their flagship university sixteen days ago
uh... dup board of visitors hacker urged her to resign she eventually did sell
puzzling a lot of people including at the faculty staff and students at the
university of virginia
however and many people protest at her decision to resign and now sixteen days
later the university's decided to reinstate her
as the president so the head of the borders this comically named helen
fragrance who sounds like you know any vogel
people comic book character like
and then you're gonna salad and repairs
pati comes in and she's a spot of the earth
who thinks issue all my god we're gonna do like business-like things here
willoughby peacefully to work and have strategic dynamism
which just means react fast
aggressively cutesy little business terms
and she conspirists with
some of the top ponders
of u_v_ a_
now one of them as a hedge fund i
who has done really good child org otherwise who's also given a lot of
money the eee
but is convinced the strategic dynamism chop profits as a way to go up
these guys who supposedly this brilliant come out with idea of hey maybe we
should be more like off for-profit online schools
anniversary today at this
top twenty-five school in the country
you want to be more like phoenix university and full sail university
now we're back on investigated by the department of education because of their
fraudulent recruiting process
twelve percent of people on this echoed college
goto uh...
for program colleges yeah
forty six percent of that default understood what still forty six and one
of the polls in the country are from the school s yes or four times
their republicans who basically
city deducting initiated the politic
because they come out notebooks that uh... that would be the job
visiting teachers anything
nor they give us an ability to get a job
of the way they first anyway
how could they think that was a smart business decision
the damask media i can see the thing is we have for you know the skin
cuz it wasn't just the one hand trying i was also a guy in the week that internal
emails
one of the donors rights and reagan's
all this is the way to go you know uh... these online schools manera break they
know what they're doing
and then she writes back in a mile
to another person on the board
uh... that quotes the wall street journal editorial and wall street
journal says although
colleges like ph zero city or the model for other people college right
dot
so that makes me think nobody the wall street journal is that stupid right
if utility many of the wall street journal hey okay great if you think
there's a great what do you go to phoenix university write your kids go to
yellow yellow we send your kids yet of course for can sell university right
but i don't no what
it's gotta be a step that they will
probly gonna somehow profit off of this they know the guys too
are on those universities yadda yadda yadda right
so greatest thinks pollyanna getting good with these guys and by the way
everybody on the board appointed by politicians every single one of 'em has
given money to politicians ok so there are political point incidentally that
education or not in that station field
bigger this light cloud passed through
where they get rid of the president
than the senate then
the role kansas flaws is incredibly pollard
just letting wrong together for two years
that faculty lover of the students love our everybody loves a right
the faculty to devote fifty did nothing and ini in her favorite to reinstate
fifteen and not yeah right
the governor of bob mcdonnell
who is a republican have
and he's told the board of a fire all of you unless you come to a decision
by yes sir
and so he did say that rehire selvam but was pretty clear right in other words he
was like you dumb asses
you should never let those emails leak
he should done this in a smarter way yet you know normally when republicans
perhaps it in your back
they're a little bit more clever about it they're worth these guys were ham
handed trees like backpedal
so helen triggers comes i guess is like
hello everybody as a press conference and i'd like to show you a couple things
wants six
through what's plastic prosecute dot that health fifteen she got back home
and others to make
all we all agree it's great to have someone back and we should have
consulted are with you guys are and then she says
i kill any regrets fish
seed in the delivery of the decision and she should have
in terms of the stand and what was really going on behind the scenes are
water that has to do with fund raising a lot of it has to do with funding
you know and they were interviewed on to the point on npr and a lot of the
conversation had to do with fund-raising and whether or not at the university
president was doing enough to fundraise for the school bizarre it's our profit
driven we know that already right
and this desire to me
move toward a for-profit college model is all about the money
let's make sure that we cut costs by giving people a shady education
and in the meantime we're gonna collect more profits
so maybe we get rid of the us some of our faculty and staff
and adult toward online of classes it'll save money it's easier for us
i think that's what it's all really about that at least my guess because
what other purpose or one of the reason which you want to go to a for-profit
college model right and and all of the part of this equation that make sense to
worse is that the business school for example is the force of self
from the rest of college so they can charge more
now members of state school
supposed to provide education is one of the states was in the country
if you're live in the jail you're lucky that you live in a state
in this in this regard it as a terrific state school right
uh... but the business school remove yourself from that life is they want to
be able to charge more
so one of the genius ideas for making a bigger profits is
yeah i know but you're saying school and the whole point of charging last piece
of the kids can afford exactly right and uh... and of course one of the reasons
that they you'll all the cuts
is because
the state has cut their fund yet that's the real problem here received
throughout the country where the state will cut the funding so
hi politicians speak out about this issue irritates me whether it's the
governors state legislators you guys need to do something to fix the funding
problem when it comes to higher education state schools are no longer
uh... accessible to people who don't have
tens of thousands of dollars to spend on tuition each year
here's what i would do
and of course no-one effected watching whatever consider this
uh... and
or the state levels
but if we had a real democracy it would probably be one of the most popular
thing to do
i would may say schools
that the axle okay
that all you can do that
now of course you can
are you kidding me we just don't go to war with iraq can accept okayed so don't
go to war with iran
bell an extra trillion dollars
alikom oversimplifying it but not by much okay
it's a matter of priorities forty proprietors
now there is that would make them free
is because education is a great equalize
so then if you're poor kid growing up in
western virginia or ever might be
you know how many opportunity you know they've been given the state school
you at the state of free education
and i don't pay for for the rest of your life by you know be indentured servitude
setter whatever might be
it would actually make us the land of opportunity
here's all i think it would
it would create a whole new class of people
who could be are pioneers who could invent the next
uh... industry who could populate be the workers of that industry et cetera et
cetera
about actually help the american people and would help everybody who would help
whites blacks latinos it doesn't matter it would help all of us
without the middle class
so of course washington would never
ever consider washington wouldn't consider it because they're not
interested in investing in our country
they give at businesses incentives to go other send jobs to other countries they
no longer investor education based on the part of this country americans are
asleep at the white nothing's being done about it really big problem
when you're taking money out of our fire education system
or you know what they can afford a decent education
at the same time all the jobs are moving to different countries
in this country is falling apart and and when you bring up the whole defense
spending angle of the taken
not only are you write it angers me every time i think about
all the politicians that are in favor of going to iran for instance
really we haven't listen up money in afghanistan in the uh... iraqi at what
we need to waste even more money on invading another country that doesn't
even have nuclear weapons at this point in
they'll turn around and say
they'll be the first to say that we can afford a g
i mean as akeli i'd love to give more money to the states was what we can
afford it you can we afford a multi trillion dollar warner in iran will of
course i have a question
