From an anonymous pundit:
The president (Glenda Colagross) is hesitant to build the workforce development center in Florence. She does not believe that it will beneficial to college to have such a building when those who started the ball rolling do not and have not had a plan for what will be done in such building. Since Senator Tim Melson and Commissioner Roger Garner are tied so tightly to the Ag Center, they are desperate to make her build. Mr. Garner is also an employee of NWSCC and is unhappy that he can not manipulate this president like he did the last.
Note: Our calculations indicate a 52 percent "no" vote. We are happy to correct this.
Senator Melson’s involvement has been confirmed by several in Montgomery and by the AEA state representative. The vote was incredibly unorganized and last minute due to “someone with ties to Montgomery” leaking a story to the local newspaper that one would occur. The employee who headed up the vote, Ms McBride, is the secretary of one of Senator Melson’s very close friends, Mr. Tom Carter. The TimesDaily has obviously aligned with Senator Melson and his plots since they are not reporting fact and definitely not telling the entire story. I am very sad by what has occurred this week at Northwest Shoals and believe that those who are responsible for damaging the college and the community should be known.
I would also like to add that there was not a 68% no confidence vote. Of those who voted, half the individuals voted for and half voted against. Many people did not vote at all since they do not want to be involved with something so ridiculous. When all numbers were counted, less than 18% of the faculty and staff voted no confidence for the president. Of those who voted not confident, many were lied to about their futures at the college while others were threatened. Additionally, there was no procedure in place to make sure that those who actually voted were who they said they were and only voted on one campus. With 492 employees, there was no safe guard to make sure that individuals were really college employees.
In regards to the “short-term leave”, President Colagross was on a planned vacation with her family and was on campus Thursday and Friday. This vote was planned at a time so that that statement could be used.

A Lotta Bodies Down Here...
Garner and Melson are not the reason for the Vote of No Confidence for Colagross. The reason is that Colagross is giving huge raises to her best buds - Crystal Reed, John McIntosh, and Timmy James. Employees who are also Taxpayers are concerned about the huge raises and cuts to scholarships that actually affects potential students.
