Auntie Charo's Soapbox

More and more, I'm beginning to rely on the on-line version of the Marianas Variety for local news...but have to give also give credit to the Breakfast show for the local news that doesn't make it on the print pages of the official fishwrap(is that one word or two?)
Any way, I might have missed the article in today's huge paper not worth the subscription price the article that UOG was once again increasing the tuition rates.......
Heard Ray Gibson talking about it while having morning coffee....I'm thinking that the increased increments, promotions and huge salaries for the big honchos(Allen and friends) require such drastic moves...how else can the university afford its lifestyle? They're not going to downsize their salaries so where else can they get their money other than increasing the tuition?
Dear, dear, don't you remember all those trips to China the dear man Allen made that promised to increase the student population? Wonder what happened to the dream....bet it went bust.....When the man was hired, his huge salary was allowed because his experience promised the university 'good' things........seems all the experience did was increase overhead.....but, have to say that during his tenure, KUAM and some other media outlets made some money in some glitz advertising boasting the kind of learning one could have if one attended UOG.......these days.......you'd have to be rich to attend it(if the tuition increase is allowed by the community!).
So far? The Guam Community College seems to be the only educational institution that seems to know what its doing.........maybe Mr./Dr. Allen could get some points on how to run the university from the head of GCC.....ya think?
I predict that PDN will probably run something on the tuition increase in a day or two........they usually do after the 'news' has been 'out there' awhile...but then again, it might have been in the paper and I just missed it.....it's happened before!
