Yet another Nassau County debacle, 6 years to find a permanent president. But at least the good board of trustees saw fit to hire Kate Murray at $151,000. This isn't the first board of trustees to fail us, look to the Nassau County Medical Center.

— Some are calling it a gigantic leap backwards for a sprawling community college.
CBS2 has learned that the accreditation of Nassau Community College may be in jeopardy.
As CBS2’s Carolyn Gusoff reported, Nassau Community College is New York’s biggest community college campus, with 22,000 students, but a preliminary report card could flunk their school.
“If the credits don’t transfer I’m basically paying for nothing,” Elias Argueta said.
Faculty members say a recent accreditation review found the college is not in compliance in 7 of 14 essential standards.
The Middle States Commission sited seven failures including planning, resources, leadership, administration, integrity, institutional assessment, and student learning.

It's 13th and 14th grades, makes Suffolk Community look like Harvard. I know someone who used to teach there who told me she had students openly displaying gang colors.
