Conti, Treanor top spenders in race for College of Marin board

The usual circle of entrenched special interests.

Do not vote for Liberals to any educational position.

The liberals are indoctrinating our children to believe that socialism, communism, marxism is the way for a society to work. You need to look no further than the Obama administration and Obama himself to see that they are actively indoctrinating our children. Let our children learn about history and not the liberal version of history where they make you believe that life without freedom is better for you.

While Conti, Paterson and Treanor filed as nonpartisan candidates, all three received contributions of $100 from the Democratic Central Committee of Marin.

HERE WE GO, THE LIBERALS TRYING TO INDOCTRINATE OUR CHILDREN.

REPUBLICANS, RISE UP WE NEED TO HAVE THIS INDOCTRINATION OF OUR CHILDREN STOP!! IT IS DESTROYING OUR CHILDREN.

What has Wandean Treanor done in her long tenure on the COM Board?

Name one thing that she is primarily responsible for.

Maybe the citizens of Marin will be smarter this time and stop electing Dolan. She's so out of touch with what's going on. She's the only board member who refuses to get into this century and use e-mail and other modern methods...she's boat anchor on the progress. She will argue with anything...if they were going to vote on what day of the week it was, she'd object.

For starters, no one board member has the power to do anything on their own, they set policy. The board has no administrative powers other than to hire the president of the school, and that is one accomplishment the board can be proud of, other major accomplishments, is turning the school from an employee focused institution to a student focused institution, passing the bond to replace and remodel old buildings and come into compliance with ADA regulations, raise the standards of institutional planning and implementing a meaningful program review designed to better serve the community with classes that are needed by residents of marin.

VOTE Treanor, Paterson and Conti.

"raise the standards of institutional planning and implementing a meaningful program review designed to better serve the community with classes that are needed by residents of marin."
What the heck does this last sentence mean, Gym??
Who gave Dr. White that insane pay increase??

Perhaps you need to take some English classes if you couldn't understand that sentence, or better yet attend some board meetings or academic senate meetings to see the work being done with your tax money.

The board approved the pay raise as it does for all employees.

Why do you call it insane. There were some professors making $190,000 a year. Do a freedom of information request and you will see the entire spectrum of COM pay. Any more questions Irate?

This is policianese. It's a glittering generality that only a polician can utter. Is Gym a pseudonym for Annan, Diane or Wanden??

Dr. White is grossly overpaid for the size of our college

Have you ever attended a board meeting to complain? I suggest you do if you feel that strong about her salary.

And no, this is Jim, not Wanden, Annan or Diane. Let me know if you need any more information.

Why is so much money being spent to get elected to these posts?
And dont tell because they want to do good deeds

If the "Jim" who is writing this drivel is JIm Namnath,he should be defeated in the next election.
