In my short experience at CCAC I have encountered multiple major management short comings. One example that comes to mind is the improper management of the CCAC Bowling team and how the coaching staff/student life supervisor conducted themselves.
The coach of the Bowling team, I won't mention his name but if you do a simple search at the school you will find the two individuals I am speaking about. There was a weekend trip for the entire bowling team to Michigan. On this trip there were no guidelines handed out, rule book given or verbal briefing conducted.
One night, the coach of the team decided to head out and visit a local gambling establishment where he openly admits to gambling and leaving the CCAC vehicle under the care of the students.
Long story short, there were improper sleeping arrangements for the entire team, 5 males in a 2 bed hotel room and 1 female in a 2 bed hotel room and 1 coach in a 1 bed hotel room. Making a judgment call, we the team decided to allow one of the males to sleep in the 2nd bed in the female room with her blessing. Additionally, the coach allowed one team member to rent a spare rolling bed from the front desk using his own funds and roll the extra mattress into the coaches hotel room.
The coach of the team made many far fetched accusations of relations between the individual who was placed in the females room, when no such relation happened. When the coach made the threat of informing someone of higher power, the team called the bluff and informed the coaches boss and sent a written and signed letter to the Dean.
Additionally, the bowling coach is suffering from advanced Parkinson disease, swerving all over the roadway and often leaving the roadway. This is dangerous to other drivers and endangering the lives of the team who is forced to ride with the coach. The team as a whole approached the coaches boss to say we feel unsafe riding with him and that we would like another driver. They declined and we as a team decided to quit unless they provided a safe mode of transpiration. The CCAC coaching staff failed to accommodate this rather reasonable request for the safety of everyone involved and the general public.
Instead of the coaches boss conducting any administrative actions on the coach, he decided to take a trip with the bowling coach and the 1 remaining team member to New York to go to a tournament.
It is a very sad situation that was never fixed and swept under the rug. I could go on forever about this, if you would like to be informed further please contact the Student Life Coach at CCAC and/or the Dean of Student Affairs at CCAC.
