Was told on Monday I would get it in the mail! It is now 3 days out! What are my rights?
Next steps......
Going to collect unemployment and look for a new job. Hopefully those affected can move on to the next chapter of their lives. Good luck everyone, best wishes for success wherever you go from here.
Information sessions?
Does anyone know how the information session for students is going?
How is it possible that anyone is shocked?
I don't know why anyone is shocked by the closure. Last year when CCI announced that it had broken debt covenants was a big red flag the company was in serious trouble. Shortly after that. the DOE put CCI on heightened cash monitoring was another... — read more
Where is my pay?
So I signed a document that said I would be paid 1900 for this term. As of this morning I have received no compensation. The document says explicitly that this isn't a contract, yet I could not teach without it, thus making it a contract regardless... — read more

Just because students who attended the now closed Everest University, Heald College or WyoTech campuses can’t finish their college career with Corinthian Colleges Inc., doesn’t mean they can’t finish their education somewhere else. For student who... — read more

Former students: attend these meetings
I didn't write this original message, but I think it's important that it get bumped up. "In the next couple of days depends on your campus, Heald is holding student meetings where other colleges in the community will help. Heald is luckily Regionally... — read more
So, who were the buyers?
Now that there is no more BS "can't divulge because of whatever secret requirements", why don't the lying loser management divulge who the "really interested" buyers were? BECAUSE there never were any.
Check cleared, and I successfully signed up for unemployment
My paycheck cleared and I signed up online for unemployment. Sad about it all, but what the heck. Still think Jack is a prick, hope he gets busted, Jon, head of academics is a lying f*** and Carla, MAERB mentor, is a dipshit.
I'll miss a lot of things about Heald
including this board and some brilliant writing and jokes! But it's the people who cared I'll miss most. Buena suerte

Largest shutdown in the history of higher education
Because stock scams don't work!
HEALD let us all down!
I've seen many students supporting Heald throughout this scandal. This honestly baffles me. Current students are being dropped from an education they have worked very hard to get through, graduated students are losing the life long job placement that... — read more
LETS REMEBER THIS IS HEALD'S FAULT
I feel deeply for the innocent students that are being negatively effected by this. As a Heald modesto graduate, I can not fathom that Heald wants students to support them. Let us not forget that we wouldn't be here and NONE of this would be... — read more
BOA would not cash my check
I had to deposit it. The teller told me the notes on her computer wouldn't allow her to "negotiation" the check.
The dirty deed is done
Had our town hall. The usual. Full time got their checks. Adjuncts have to come back Wednesday. A few students were hanging around on the sidewalk. Some were crying. We printed out copies of pay stubs to use for filing unemployment. Hugs and... — read more

Where is Eeva?
She gives us very little "leadership" this entire time and gives us nothing when this all comes out. What a horrible leader. Coward.
Are we getting any checks tomorrow?
I mean, how are they going to pay us if there is no money.
I can't sleep.
I just want to go in tomorrow, grab my final check, say good-bye to some people, and move onto the next stage in my life. The past six months of getting jerked around have been exhausting. Good luck to everybody...except all the executives. I hope... — read more
