Wow -- the president of CalArts got BOOED OFF THE STAGE at commencement last weekend. Then one of the rich, literally inaccessible board members stood up to chastise the students. Talk sbout cant read the room!
CalArts (California institute for the arts) has been in trouble in for some time
I was faculty there. tuitions are insane, millions wasted on consultants that return useless reports, school never had money for snything including repairs, yet admin hss bloated up two or three times. I dod Academic Council two years; the board never showed up *once*. They fended off a strike with salary boosts (mine from 40k! To 60k, still not great) but then never fixed snything else.
There seems to be no plan.
