Oh my goodness! So the slap in the face that Dr. Hollandsworth received when Ken Malone, without business credentials, was made a department chair in CBED about the same time that Dr. Hollandsworth was pulled from teaching history for allegedly not having the history credentials came as a second insult of the Thames regime?

Hollandsworth has the great and honored distinction of being the first person to have been fired twice by SFT.
By the way, they cleaned out his office in the history department when he was out of town and he didn't even know it until he got back.

History? I thought his degree and academic speciality was counselor education.

His PhD is in psychology, but he has written at least two published books in history and they have been very well reviewed. He had been teaching for the history department for several years. Dvorak et al. pulled him because he didn't have the proper credentials.

And we all know the irony there....remember her red-faced and crying about how her "academic career" was over??

IIRC, the reason was "accreditation concerns" which was why it was so ludicrous that Malone was awarded the second of his jobs, a clear accreditation concern, at about the same time by the same administration.
