OUTRAGE that some people in positions of power think we are so stupid.
SADNESS that they are so entrenched in the system that they can't see beyond what is going to benefit them and even more sadness that they don't want to do so.
Look at the post just before this for the full content of Democratic Minority Leader Jeff Berkman's (draft) letter regarding Valley View and Touro College. And after that are the results of a cursory investigation by your Auntie Alibi.
TOURO AT A GLANCE
SAT scores are not required for this college.
Touro College
Foundation has not filed a 990 since 2009 (required when receipts are over a certain
amount.) It is difficult to imagine a College operating on such a
paltry sum.

Touro College Rocked By Cash For Grades Scandal
Touro College, which
describes itself as a school operating under Jewish auspices, is in effect a
haredi version of Yeshiva University, a few steps up from a degree mill but
considerably weaker academically than YU. Late today a NY grand jury issued 10
indictments in a cash for grades and cash for transcripts scheme that began
operating at least as far back as 2003.

Touro Under Scrutiny Over Israel Class
Dear Jeff:
Your plan is GARBAGE!!! It only serves to line the pockets of Focus Ventures and Touro College and whoever else-we will find out. We don't need Focus Ventures for med students to do a rotation. We don't need Touro taking some of the Valley View residents, moving them from a county-owned facility to a private entity. And besides, just which residents would you choose?
Was this the plan that former Republican Chairman, Bill Deprospo, outlined to you that day when you, Melissa Bonacic and Katie Bonelli met with Billy?
Did you even think to look into the backgrounds of either Focus or Touro? You are the elected official whose job it is to make an INFORMED decision. You are the one who is paid by the people to do your due diligence. Did you even make an attempt at doing some homework?
Or maybe you were just waiting for your Auntie to do it.
QUI BONO?
