Demonstrates power Wills holds over weak Board; October CTE and March discussions also demonstrate incredible difference five months makes in Board views
In October 2017 the Community College Governing Board appeared strongly in favor of purchasing a CTE building in the Valley. The Board also appeared to be sending a message to the Verde Valley to get going on finding such a building. Then, in March 2018, after the Verde Valley had located several possible buildings to purchase for CTE, the majority on the Board followed President Penelope’s lead in abandoning the October idea.
As proof of the change in attitude on this issue, compare the discussions on the videos below. The first video is of the Verde Valley CTE discussion at the October 2017 Governing Board meeting. The second video is of the discussion at the March meeting. They are as different as night and day.
