Tribal College

I think it's a great idea. See Ted's new blog at this address: www.aitcsjc.blogspot.com

Trustees on Raven Radio

Two of the SJC Trustees talk on Raven Radio’s program Give and Take. Hear the program here.

The school has now been closed for 6 months and the two Trustees said on this program that it will be mid 2008 before laid off employees are paid. They also mentioned that expenses continue. The question that each laid off employee has to ask themselves is will there be any money left to pay employees when all is said and done. It was interesting that one Trustee didn’t even know how much money was owed to laid off employees and if you do the math the other Trustee might have guessed low.

Next Steps: Severance & Annual Leave

It appears that little has happened in the month following former employees' formal request to the Department of Labor. It may be necessary to develop a different strategy, as several folks have suggested. To that end, we should meet.

I'd like to propose two things: First, that we meet at least once prior to the holidays, say the week of December 18-22. Second, that we make it possible for folks out of town to call in via teleconference.
