Presumably you refer to stories such as this one: Wasser, FRHSD Inspires Statewide Ban on Diploma Mills Quote:Legislation placing new rules on the kind of course work for which school district employees can be compensated could be put to a vote next week. H. James Wasser is just the tip of the iceberg in Freehold Township. E.g., looks like Lorraine Taddei-Graef tried to BSU herself into a pay raise, and that retired Assistant Superintendent of Freehold regional, Frank Tanzini, also had one. School district staffer wants title, pay raise back Meanwhile, H. James Wasser keeps drawing his $200,000 salary. Superintendent to keep full salary after taking lesser role Wow, almost as much as the entire Gollum household combined! The question we never see answered (or even asked) in these stories is, if it's so-o-o-o-o incredibly important that the degrees be accredited, why don't the people spending the taxpayers' money take ten seconds and verify them? Shouldn't the people who approved those raises be getting reamed in the local press too? State asks school chiefs to verify degrees Yeah, there's an idea, let's verify those degrees before we start paying off on them, rather than waiting until after somebody notices and starts complaining. Dubious diplomas challenge area school districts Quote:...The state Department of Education licensing code does require that teachers get their bachelor’s degrees and supervisors and administrators get a master’s degree from a regionally accredited college or university. Not a huge problem for Higgins, because he gets paid whether he does his job or not, and the NJ taxpayers pay for his mistakes. Instead of passing more useless "diploma mill" laws, how about passing a law that makes dereliction of duty by a public official a crime? (No, I won't hold my breath waiting for that.)

Does no one in NJ have a problem with this? Surely not everyone in that tiny little state is an Obamunist drone who don't understand whose money the government takes to pay these ridiculous salaries? Do you think they would have any trouble finding a guy with a real PhD who would show up and actually do the work for half that amount? Quote:passing a law that makes dereliction of duty by a public official a crime? Let's make things clear: those people have probably been sucking oysters and tasting foi gras in the company of the big guys just last week...and you want to make a criminal of them? Come on... Derelict? You know who's a true derelict? The little hulkster who's fired because he's late at Walmart's... Security catches Pedro with an apple in his trousers: he stole it... Newspapers catch Madoff squandering 800 billions: he was a victim of the stock market...
