The CCC Board of Trustees have called a special meeting for May 23, 2017. An agenda of this meeting has not been provided on the CCC website.
For additional Information I am providing the text of my email communication with the CCC Board of Trustees Chairman Ellis Monroe on April 10, 2017-just as this scandal was breaking and just before Mr. Monroe resigned from the Board of Trustees. I told Mr. Monroe that “heads will have to roll” to straighten this mess out. I stick to my evaluation as noted in my email below.
Mr. Monroe,
Thank you for calling me this morning regarding the article below. You can access the article by clicking on the link noted in blue letters and opening the hyperlink. And please forward this email/article to the other members of the CCC Board as well as other interested persons as you see fit.
As you will see when you read the article, there are very serious concerns raised on many fronts regarding the goings-on at Cleveland Community College as well as Cleveland County Schools in regard to the leadership of both at the highest levels. Much of the article is also confirmed by information I have received from other sources.
It appears to me the best approach to take by everyone involved is to find the truth, admit to the truth and do what is necessary to correct this matter. Some heads will have to roll at both Cleveland Community College and Cleveland County Schools is the way I see this situation. I would also suggest the CCC Board of Trustees calling in the SBI or other law enforcement agencies to investigate the allegations of misapplication of Grant funding. Retaliation against any person noted in the article would not be advised.
Again, thanks for your call. And your interest in this matter. Please give me a call If you have any problems opening the link to the article. Also note that the link will also allow you to read the comments that have been made regarding the article. You can’t always verify who is making the comments, but you can get a general feeling of how others are perceiving the article.
Regards,
Robert A. Williams

Folks, hang on to your hats regarding this matter. There is much more information coming in to me regarding these scandals and the cover-up. It would be nice if the CCC Board of Trustees, the school board and the commissioners would take appropriate action. I suspect they will not. There is much more information that I have that will be coming out soon. You will be the first to know.
In the meantime, Remember, this is an Election Year for the School Board. School Board Chairman Phillip “Bully” Glover and members Kathy Falls and Donnie Thurman, Jr. need to go. I recommend voting for Danny Blanton, Kevin Whisnant, Rodney Fitch and Robert Queen (if he runs) for the school board. Stay tuned to this website if you want to know the truth of this matter.
