Educators’ visions=taxpayer burdens


August 25, 2011    The silence is deafening…and that is not a good thing re: Chancellor Beran’s alleged “vision” for the development of a Mallalieu Center for Academic Excellence apparently aimed at north-side kids.

The secrecy surrounding his proposed endeavor is indeed extremely troubling.

Educators for decades have created and sustained quasi academic programs without any discussions with the paying citizenry.  Back in the day when education was real and needs were to be met there were few questions asked about school financing because positive results usually followed.  Today the education cabals have multiplied exponentially and the results top down are dismal. On the world stage American universities rank 19th.  The personal conduct of many teachers are equally dismal, e.g. today’s Dem-Gaz announced via an FOIA that in Arkansas over 4,000 government school teachers are double dipping.  This is only in teaching, not the rest of state government employees and no telling how many that entails.

Citizens, we can no longer allow the Beran’s of this country to secretly meet, hatch up million dollar schemes and without due process dump them on unsuspecting citizens to bear their economic burdens.

The audacity of Chancellor Beran coming forth and announcing after 2 years of clandestine involvements the plans to create another mega-dollar government expansion—all in the name of education “for the children”. 

This is not the 1950’s. Education has become a self-serving, thieving dynasty. Two more examples, Arkansas school teachers & ancillary help were awarded a $90 million gift  and in the case of Fort Smith was divvied up on the last day of school with teachers receiving $700 each…all this vote buying came under the masquerade of the federal “stimulus”.  State schools are spending$10,000 + per year per student and what are we getting?  Failure, cooking the books, 50% remediation rates, cheating on test scores, lowering standards & dumbed-down indoctrinating curricula…so does another blank check to Beran make any sense?

Beran, along with some of his co-conspirators, are in all likelihood in their bunker at UAFS waiting for the time to spring the “vision” of his Academic Excellence indoctrination center.  
The real question here is simply what is going on behind the curtain regarding Beran’s comedic farce.
If Beran’s enabled theatrics were legitimate it still would not be proper to implement without taxpaying citizens’ full knowledge and approval. 

Beran has not been forthcoming regarding who his associates are in his proposed “vision”.   Beran is much too smart and a seasoned politician/fundraiser not to cover all bases. So who are the enablers who are engineering in the “end around”?

Only an educated guess can be made concerning the undisclosed participants.  Who benefits financially, politically or otherwise?  The nominees are:  Richard Griffin, Ken Pyle, Senator Jake Files, Administrator Ray Gosack, Phil White, Rep. Denny Altes, Mayor Sandy Sanders, Kevin Settle, Pam Weber, 1st National Bank, Bennie Westphal???  A number of others are possible nominees.  
Is there an involvement with New Market Tax Credits and/or Agenda 21?

The tax & spend antics of government employees can no longer be tolerated, especially in this time of economic depression.  Preserving every possible historical site is not the taxpayers’ obligation.  Mallalieu is the responsibility of those interested to donate.
