[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is nothing "slimy" about anything. I don't think GDS lacks concern of anything. Why always attribute the worst to people? Over and over again, Russ Shaw apologized and asked to sit down. I know you think that's too late, but why is it really too late? Aren't you just interested in solving the problem? The only ANC solution is some draconian deterrence, which will just create long-standing tension.[b]  Incompetence? Hardly. GDS has shown over and over again its competence: it's one of the top schools in the entire country.[/b]  Sit down and talk, and stop threatening lawsuits. We're talking a mere 50 students during a pandemic. Many private schools were surprised by the yield. This whole mess is all due to pandemic, even the fact that the school failed to report. Things fell through the cracks everywhere during the pandemic for very understandable reasons. Befriend rather than fight. Move on.[/quote]

The bolded is crap.  GDS doesn't get a pass on legal compliance just because it has smart students.

Here's what I don't understand:
- GDS takes millions in Covid funds, despite no hit to its revenues.
- GDS is "surprised" to end up with 50 extra kids, when that's probably double of what in admits in a normal year?
- GDS gets $2.5 million extra in tuition the last couple of years due to accident?

I agree that competence does not seem to be the issue.[/quote]

Sidwell took the PPP loan, not GDS, Maret, STA, NCS, etc. 50 extra kids is less than 1/2 the size of a typical GDS graduating senior class.  Do you normally just make stuff up?[/quote]
