Trustee Alan Norman:
Sheriff Alan Norman was appointed by Governor Pat McCrory and his term expires in 2019. Sheriff Norman, although having heard only one side for much of his term, has now shown a willingness to take prompt action regarding the scandals at CCC and CCS.
We consider Sheriff Alan Norman to be an asset on the CCC Board of Trustees who is unafraid and un-conflicted enough to do what is necessary to resolve the scandals at CCC
Trustee Bill Turpish:
Trustee Bill Turpish was appointed by Republican Governor Pat McCrory. Trustee Turpish’s term expires in 2020. Trustee Turpish has a background in engineering where you have to make clear observations of the facts and then make sound judgements according to all the facts in play. The one sided nature of the information presented in previous board meetings may have slanted and basically tainted Trustee Turpish’s judgement up to now, but we suspect Trustee Turpish has now seen the light.
We consider and believe Trustee Turpish’s objectivity will carry the day when the CCC Board of Trustees, minus the gridlock, will have to make their hard and final decisions that will be necessary to resolve the various and many scandals that have cast such storm clouds over the once healthy Cleveland Community College.
Trustee Wayne King:
Trustee Wayne Kings was appointed by Governor Pat McCrory. King’s term expires in 2018. Trustee King’s hobby is politics. Trustee King’s job is politics too, conservative politics. Trustee King is the Deputy Chief of Staff for District 11 US Congressman Mark Meadows, leader of the Freedom Caucus. Over the years Wayne King has learned to lead from the front and when things don’t work, you fix them. Trustee King is in the exact right place and the exact right time to make the hard decisions that are necessary to clean up the mess at Cleveland Community College That is fix the programs that are broken, get rid of the administration members that have failed to meet expectations, shake up the CCC Board as necessary and in the end, do the right thing for CCC instead of continuing some aged-out mindset. long term conflicts of interests and one sided presentations that leave out the truth.
We believe Wayne King should be elected as the Chairman of the CCC Board of Trustees where Trustee King’s talents and skills can best be used to promptly address the problems, cut through the red tape and do-nothing tradition of previous CCC Boards. And fix the various scandals that have taken over at CCC.
Trustee Gordon Hamrick:
Trustee Gordon Hamrick was appointed by the Commissioners. His term expires in 2019. Trustee Gordon Hamrick is the oldest member of the CCC Board of Trustees with a lifetime of experience. And is willing to make the hard decisions necessary to clean up the mess that has developed at CCC over the years. Although Trustee Hamrick is willing to make the hard decisions he has become less interested in serving on committees and more interested in hearing recommendations and making his decision on that. That is well and good as long as a stop is put to the one sided information presentations that have gone on for years.
We consider Trustee Gordon Hamrick will make the right decisions to clean up the scandals at CCC, to return CCC to a healthy, honest and ethical organization committed to education and not a bunch of personal agendas, ego trips and conflicts of interests..
