Concord resembles an internal colony of locals that just exploit the University for their own personal gain. Programs, instruction, and student life are consistently cut and quality compromised to fund the crazy extravagant salaries of the President and her cronies from the local area. There are some good faculty and some decent programs, but these are constantly being defunded and struggle due to constant budget cuts and bullying by the President and upper admin. Since the vast majority of funding goes to pay admin salaries and fund many failing pet projects of the President and local partners who have, and continue to, profit from these projects, faculty are severely underpaid and end up competing with and backstabbing each other in their constant fight over the crumbs in funding left over after so much corruption, waste, and fraud by the admin. This creates a toxic environment that is not conducive for learning and student development although many faculty and staff do well by covering this up and faking it, mainly due to the constant threat of losing their jobs or having their program cut. Students who go to Concord quickly realize within a few months that most of what they were told about the school by admissions counselors were complete misrepresentations or outright lies. A good example of this is that students are told that the campus has a swimming pool and all sorts of recreational and fitness opportunities all of which the President defunded and closed down years ago when she received a vote of no confidence. The President and her loyal cronies, most of which are from the local area, are completely irresponsible and spend more money and effort blaming anyone and everyone for the multitude of problems on campus than trying to fix them. Anyone who tries to actually fix any problems are targeted for bullying, abuse, and eventual elimination. This has resulted in so many great faculty and programs being eliminated and replaced with failing programs and incompetent faculty that are admin loyalists from the local area. Most of these faculty never taught on any level, never worked in the real world, and have no professional training or qualifications except getting degrees from Concord and working as students in offices on campus. A good example of this is the MSW program in which the program director and three of his best friends simply got faculty positions after just being Concord students, working on campus in the grant office, never actually did any social work in the real world, and never taught a single class on any level at all before teaching on the graduate level. The director and his friends are from Athens and the surrounding area, which is how they obtained their positions. Competent instruction, ethics, and academic rigor is not important at Concord. The University will accept any student that applies, and most faculty just hand out passing grades for any work turned in regardless of quality in order to keep students enrolled so the admin doesn?t cut their programs or fire them due to financial loss. Since student life is of no importance at all to the President and her cronies, there is nothing to do on campus besides play video games, drink, and smoke pot. Sexual assaults in dorms, stalking, and even gang rapes have occurred and are quickly covered up. The campus police are ineffective, lazy, irresponsible, racist, bullies who spend most of their time hastling students when they are not putting up parking cones or setting in their offices. The food on campus is terrible and students often get sick from eating in the cafeteria due to poor food handling and cleanliness practices. Computers and classroom technology is outdated and not maintained, constantly breaking down and not being repaired. Meanwhile the President and her cronies keep giving themselves raises to pad their 6 figure salaries while enrollment and overall institutional quality on every level consistently declines as it has for the past 11 years.
