I want to come back to this because wow.
"The school silenced dissenters with non-disclosure agreements and threats of lawsuits. It forbade employees from speaking publicly about SCAD without Wallace’s permission in writing."
"[The president's] memoir named three dozen celebrities with whom she has mingled: designers, authors, photographers, movie stars. The implication is obvious: Like Wallace, SCAD students can be stars."
"But at a school that rarely rejects a prospective student, not everyone can excel." In 2015, their acceptance rate was 69%. 🙁
When asked about nepotism, the president (and founder) responded, “What did anyone expect, that we would try to start something as risky and tenuous as a new college with — what? Strangers?” 😂😂😂😂
"SCAD offers no tenure or other job protections to professors, all of whom work year-to-year with no guarantees of keeping their jobs." Listen. WTF is this?
"Evidence showed that SCAD employed private detectives to follow and photograph people who had publicly opposed the school..." Excuse me?
"A maintenance supervisor, complained to his boss about being ordered to work on Wallace’s private property, using the school’s materials and supplies..."
"Soon, as a pretense for firing him, SCAD accused Arledge of threatening Glenn Wallace, a lawsuit alleged. Flyers with Arledge’s picture appeared on campus, the lawsuit said, as if he were wanted for a crime." 😂😂😂😂 Insane.
"In 2014, the bond-rating firm Moody’s said SCAD accepted almost 94 percent of applicants. SCAD claims its acceptance rate runs closer to 70 percent. At the most selective private universities, the rate rarely exceeds 20 to 25 percent."94%?!
So, SCAD is a scam. Who knew?
