Their goal is to get as many federal, state, and (mostly) local tax dollars as they can so they can continue to increase their already bloated salary/benefits packages. How do you explain Gateway president Albrecht eliminating quality programs claiming Gateway is in a "budgetary crisis", and then turning around and giving himself a 10.2% increase in total compensation? Don't tell me the board gave him the raise. Albrecht has said the board does whatever he tells them to do. He provides them with misleading information in order to further his agenda. The non-elected, appointed board is a farce. They mean well, but they have no idea what they're doing, and which is exactly how Gateway adminstrators want it. They promote the heck out of million dollar programs like their new welding lab/boot camps knowing full well that there are no welding jobs in the tri-county region! Total waste of money and effort, not to mention misleading to the students who enrolled in those classes. I'd also like to know why Albrecht needs to travel all the way to Germany to sign a piece of paper for their "student exchange program"? He spends far too much time engaging in self-promotion (presenting at national and international conferences claiming Gateway is some sort of "leader",..) and not enough time engaging the community he is charged with serving. Gateway is constanting generating propaganda news releases that our newspapers (Kenosha News, Racine Journal Times, Racine Post) print almost verbatim. They should do some more investigating instead of being a party to Gateway's self-promotion.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-68276184063226531092010-09-29T08:23:34.937-05:002010-09-29T08:23:34.937-05:00I would like to know the REAL story about the Day ...I would like to know the REAL story about the Day Care Center.

If your car breaks down you call a auto tech who was probably trained at Gateway; if you are hospitalized, nurses, lab techs, surgery techs, aids food service workers and patient records staff care for you--all could be trained at Gateway; if there's a fire in your home or you're in an accident the EMTs, paramedics, police officers and sheriff staff coming to your aid were probably trained at Gateway. Gateway-trained people touch our livers in very immediate ways and times. As a southeastern Wisconsin resident I'm glad of that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-6152351724198368272010-09-29T07:46:09.174-05:002010-09-29T07:46:09.174-05:00Glad the hard-working Gateway staff were awarded d...Glad the hard-working Gateway staff were awarded designated funds fit training of health-care professionals.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5583157134881112619.post-1190778292330418422010-09-28T23:57:52.987-05:002010-09-28T23:57:52.987-05:00Sad part, my daughter started her Nursing major ov...Sad part, my daughter started her Nursing major over 3 years ago, she is still waiting to get into clinicals, is this money going to improve that.
