Since Modany and his henchmen wish to collect more pay and did not file for bankruptcy all employees are covered under the W.A.R.N. act, as today was clearly a mass layoff that qualifies for application of the W.A.R.N. act, especially since they did not notify us with any advance notice and left all of us hanging over the Labor Day weekend. Plus no severance packages were offered to us, which as per their policy was never waived.

It was rumored ... The Director of Recruitment at our campus received a $7000 severance before he was let go.
One can sue and still move on at the same time. It's called multitasking. 😊
The no severance rule applies only to the executives of he company - not regular staff at the schools.
severance is not leally required, so ITT can just say they don't feel like it right now. You say, "but they have a severance policy" , however ITT can say all their policies state they can be modified at any time at ITT's discretion (or something like that). They usually give it to prevent "bad publicity", but won't help much here.
DOE has prohibited bonuses and severance packages till all financial obligations are met. The top bosses otherwise would approve of these to themselves first!!
Ha, joke
No money available
Please don't count on it...please move forward, that's as,WARN enough as its going to get...those severance packets should of been ready
Save your energy and think about your next steps...just sayin
ITT's BS about "unforeseen" won't hold off WARN Act suits if any are filed. They knew in APRIL they had to satisfy ACICS's show-cause. Unfortunately, anyone who prevails will have to stand in line for a corporation with very few unsecured assets.
They closed due to unforseeable circumstances which is an exemption under the WARN Act.
I'm sure they will file a BK soon enough
Well...go ahead and sue them. Or just move on. It's all irrelevant now.
