Prof. Suzanne Jones and Prof. Audra Heaslip of @CollinCollege are being terminated because they publicly objected to the school's deadly COVID policies. Here are the emails of the members of the Board of Trustees. If you're a Collin County voter, let them know what you think.
Board Member Andrew Hardin is the business owner of Collin County Bookkeeping. He does payroll for small businesses. Maybe he has some thoughts on the @CollinCollege President's $50K cash bonus? Here's Hardin's business. If you're his client, ask him: http://www.collinbooks.com/?r
Board Member Jim Orr is senior VP of business development at Ivy Technology, a Dublin-based company with an office in Allen, Texas. Here's Jim's LinkedIn page. Are you connected to Jim on LinkedIn? Ask him about the college president's personnel actions. https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimorrtx
. @collincollege Board Member Raj Menon, Pres. of Flatworld Design, is on Twitter: @Raj_Menon. He has over 500 connections on LinkedIn. Are you connected to Dr. Menon on? Let him know what you think of these outrageous firings of beloved professors. https://www.linkedin.com/in/rajmenon
. @collincollege Board Member Stacy Arias is the founder and president of AriaEd, an educational consulting firm. Her twitter handle is @arias_anne. If you're a Collin County voter, ask her if she supports firing these profs. Here's her company website. https://www.ariaed.org/
Dr. Stacey Donald is a former @collincollege professor who ran for the board. She vocally supported me last fall when the college was trying to fire me. If you are a Collin County voter in her district, please show your appreciation. https://twitter.com/StaceyDonald1/status/1321131765117952000
Greg Gomel is an Agile/Scrum instructor who provides training in these business practices to veterans, a very worthy cause. He also has a small business training C-level executives. What does he think of the C-suite's actions at @collincollege? Ask him: http://www.thegomelgroup.com/
. @collincollege board member Fred Moses is the founder and president of Telecom Electric Supply Company. If you're a Collin County voter, reach out to Mr. Moses and ask him if he supports the college president's outrageous actions. https://www.linkedin.com/in/fred-moses-883409135
. @collincollege board member Jay Saad is on Twitter: @jaysaad3. But he's also the VP of sales for @Cigna healthcare in the TX/OK region. Does a healthcare company think objecting to dangerous COVID policies is a firing offense? If you're a Collin County voter, ask Mr. Saad.
. @collincollege president @Hanema has repeatedly violated the civil rights of employees. The college has a staff attorney, part of the C-Suite. Is she the one giving this awful personnel advice or is H. Neil Matkin just ignoring her and laying the college open to major liability?
Does the @CollinCollege Board of Trustees support this kind of intemperate, rash, and dangerous behavior by the college's president, H. Neil Matkin? Is he an executive who has lost control of himself and is sending his organization off a cliff? Why does he still have a job? Ask.
Note the refrain in stories like this one: "The college has declined to comment on personnel issues." Perhaps people should stop asking the college's PR office for comment, and start asking @collincollege Board of Trustees members for comment. https://www.insidehighered.com/quicktakes/2021/02/01/collin-college-pushes-out-another-professor
The CHAIR of the @collincollege board of trustees, J. Robert "Bob" Collins is a professor at @tamuc. He is also a large landowner in Farmersville, TX. His family trust owns over 100 acres of land there. Coincidentally, the newest Collin campus opens in Farmersville next year.
Anyway, if you're a Collin County voter and/or you or someone in your family attends @collincollege, you have every right to ask members of the Board of Trustees to comment on the harassment and retaliatory firing of professors. Is @Hanema really worth the $50,000 cash bonuses?
