Vicky Smith
The agenda for the last meeting of the old McHenry County College Board is scheduled for Thursday night at 6:30.
On the Agenda is a report to extend the contract of MCC President Vicky Smith.
But the College will not release the report.
Even though it was on the Agenda last Tuesday, April 16th.
Now you can read the report on McHenry County Blog. It’s found below:
The top secret, hush-hush report that recommends an extension of MCC President Vicky Smith’s contract through June 30, 2015.
The most important sentence is
“The Board was pleased with the results of the evaluation, and therefore feels a contract extension is appropriate.”
For those who think a Board consisting of three out of seven members who will not be in office about ten minutes after this contract extension is approved, attendance at the meeting might be appropriate.
How come no large raise for the free spending tax increaser?
People are so cynical!
I’m sure that anyone who’s ever worked and gotten a good job review received a guaranteed 26-month $600,000 contract.
Has the evaluation instrument and evaluation been available for public review prior to tonight’s vote?
If so, where is it?
If not, the board members should postpone the vote until it has been made available for public review.
Or is there some state law or board policy which states a community college President evaluation cannot be made available for public review?
Furthermore, the board members should postpone the vote until the new board is seated, since the new board will employ the President, not the existing board.
If community colleges are like public school districts, the board has only one employee – the President or Superintendent.
Here’s the current MCC Board of Trustees.
