John Pickelman, Chancellor of NHMCCD is “retiring”. So NHMCCD has appointed a search committee to look for his replacement. Let us look at who was appointed and what their associations are and lets see what we can glean from this information:
Alan Hall: English Professor, Union Organizer, currently named in one of the largest ethics complaints in commission history
Martin Basaldua: Defeated Position 1 board member that voted for the election fiasco back in March and cost the district millions, also named in ethics complaints
Kenny McGowan: This was the sole person requesting annexation of the Cleveland ISD back in Jan/Feb and a person with the same name is listed as a Pofessor of Respiratory care at Kingwood College.
Fred Caldwell: Close friend of John Fox (Board member Pos. 4), Fox’s son worked for him and Caldwell was ardent campaign supporter of incumbents etc.
Ramon (Ray) Laughter: Vice-Chancellor and Pickelman’s second in command, and oh by the way named in one of two ethics complaints, with possibly more in the works.
Mary Matteson-Parish: Former board member, resigned to let Basaldua get on board and continue the “club” close friend of John Pickelman.
Elvin Franklin: Another close friend of Pickelman
Rick Berry: Namesake of the Berry Edification Center, longtime education insider and supporter of the Board members, helped to get Cy-Fair annexed into the college district.

How is this relevant to me, a resident of West Houston?
If you live in the Cyfair ISD, you’re in the CyFair Community College District, which is part of the NHMCCD. Even if you’re not in Cyfair, your state taxes help support those community colleges.
They are all in this together…without regard with what is good for the NHMCCD. It’s all about power and greed instead of being fair-minded and doing what is right..they want to be “politically correct” to the voters. It’s a good thing Balsadua did not get elected.

It is relevant to many of us. Why should we care about you.
By the way, I have a personal beef with Mr. Hall that I think all of you can appreciate. He was one of my english professors years ago. He was an arsehole then too.
#5 - they’re all arseholes. I classed at one of the colleges for a while, and if you think you have issues, I bet you can’t hold a candle to the issues I have with those goons!
Now are y’all saying these people are
Arrogant Stupid Spineless Hypocritical Obnoxious Lying Egotists?
# 7 BINGO! DING DING DING We have a winner!
I wonder why it is that the serch for Pickleman’s replacement isn’t being focused on any current employee within the District. i.e. Stephen Head - 2nd in “command”? The five freaking college presiden’ts already in place?
It doesn’t speak very well for them, does it?
Muahahahahaha.
sorry for all the typos. haven’t had my coffee yet!
It’s like a never ending stream!
