Major players in future Allied Health Campus pose for picture without story
Dr. Penelope Wills works hard at keeping secret from the public her plans for the new $45 million dollar Community College campus in Prescott Valley. Recall, for example, that at the last meeting with Prescott Town officials and others, she refused to allowed the Blog reporter access to the meeting so he could videotape the proceedings.
Information coming from sources in Flagstaff indicate that Northern Arizona University sees Wills’ as the $45 million bagman who will indirectly finance its expansion and presence in Prescott Valley. (Wills’ has promised $4 million directly to NAU in the ten-year development plan. The $45 million is also found in the 10-year-plan for the Prescott Valley Allied Health Center).
On November 8 the Prescott Daily Courier ran the photo and headline, which appear below. However, there was no story attached to the photo–absolutely none. Very odd, to say the least, but consistent with the Wills’ stealth approach to providing neither the public nor the Governing Board any details about her plans for the future Prescott Valley Community College and its relationship to NAU.
Here is the photo and headline that appeared on the front page of the Courier. You can also view the photo without a story on the front page of the Courier by clicking here.
