STICKER SHOCK
Support-Staff Jobs Double in 20 Years, Outpacing Enrollment

Not Clemon’s fault – But it is (and you’re included if you are an Administrator at Clemson),much less than honorably, led by the Clemson University Administration.

As I’ve stated and it is well known, Jim Barker has shown time and time again that his only agenda is his own agenda. Both from fairness in compensation to utter discregard for the ugly acts of sexual harassment, emotional battering, bullying of defenseless employees by Dept. Heads and Asst’s (educated – w/ Clemson PhD) are prime examples of complete people idiots, evil and slimy folks exist and thrive in the disguise of educated teachers and leaders.

All of this is covered by the likes of Cathy Sams, a PR (better named Barker’s Bi__h) who is there for the sole purpose of controlling the media and distorting or covering the facts.

Both Universities have some serious financial mismangement, some serious people skill flaws and a real propensity to want to create and empire ahead of results by vision and work.

To add injury to insult many of those employees affected by reductions-in-force (layoffs) will read this at some point. There should be mechanisms in place to reward and encourage performance on the job without someone at the top sticking his/her hand in the register to increase their already inflated six figure salaries (with supplments in the thousands of dollars.)

Why are you so fixated on school choice as the perceived M.O. for everything we write. Get over it … please.

You’re starting to sound like those rabid educrats who press the “Howie Rich” button when they can’t think of anything intelligent to say.

The fact is Warthen never met a tax increase he didn’t like – locally, statewide or federally.

He was always fawning over bigger budgets for every agency under the sun and chose to use his platform as a means of perpetuating the status quo’s failure in virtually every aspect of state g’ment rather than exposing it for what it is – costly, collosal failure.

Sure, he called for g’ment restructuring way back in the day and has consistently supported that, but that’s frankly the only redeeming quality the man has.

-FITS

Yeah, like all liberals, he supported the Iraq war. And he endorsed that noted left-winger John McCain for President.

In all seriousness, I guess anyone who thinks SCRG is sketchy and that PPIC (or whatever it is now) is badly flawed shall now be dubbed a “left-winger.”
