Complaint Review: Grantham University - Kansas City Missouri

Hi. I did not work with DeAnn at Grantham; but I did work with her at the University of Phoenix in Tempe, AZ. I can name countless people who would agree that Deann Wandler is only about furthering her own self financially while promoting such dishonest organizations like UOP. Based on what I've read about Grantham, seems she up to the same old thing. She was a manager of an enrollment team at UOP. Funny thing was is that Deann did not even have a bachelor's degree. How can somebody manage a team of people trying to enroll people into a college when they don't even have a degree themselves? Deann used many dishonest tactics, such as lying, falsifying information, and harrassment of her enrollment advisors in order to improve her "numbers." Funny thing was is that despite her efforts, it seemed she didn't have what it took to work at that particular diploma mill, so she transferred elsewhere. In this case, Grantham. What a joke of a university both of these are. I only worked at UOP for a short time because I felt as though I was doing people a disservice by trying to enroll them in such a shady institution. Like Grantham, UOP was also very discriminating against minorities. Well, I could go on and on, and please advise me if you would like to hear more. I can give many other names, situations, and frauds comitted by UOP. If anybody would like to hear, please let me know. Deann Wandler belongs in jail. She is the shadiest of shady characters, and one day she will get what is coming to her. Thanks for your time.

I am a current employee of Grantham University, and yes, even a student. The classes are a joke, as well as the instructors. The only reason I am taking classes is because it is free, and I'm working towards another degree, so I can get my bonus and raise. It's so easy, and it's easy money. What's even more of a joke is the management. It's funny, they are getting rid of the loyal Louisiana employees because they know too much. But, they won't ever get rid of Deann. In fact, ask her how she bought her bmw and her 400k house. I bet you anything, her boyfriend John Ferris (the executive, and probably 20 years younger than her) helped her with that. Drive past her huge house, and you will see his car there. Whatever Deann wants she gets. Even if she is not meeting her "metrics". You can tell she is not meeting them, because she has excuses for everything. It's because I don't have enough trainers, ok, let's get more trainers. I don't have enough managers, ok, let's get more managers. I don't have enough management support, ok, let's create team leaders. I don't have enough free giveaways for my employees, ok, let's give away trips to Mexico. I need Title IV funding, and then I will finally meet my numbers. Now what's the excuse for not meeting the numbers, after that doesn't work???? And let's not forget poor Tom Macon. Tom has such a heart of gold, but he trusts his management staff too much. Just one word- and all of the executives know what it is- it starts with a "R", and it was the official term to get rid of the employees that John Ferris and Pat Campbell didn't want anymore. I guess Noble didn't play very well with Deann. so, Deann had to get rid of him. And Rodney was black, and Deann had to get rid of him too. So, they get rid of the black manager, and bring in a new white manager. How convenient is that? is that why they fired everyone in Human Resources to do damage control, and bring in a new black Human Resources guy? what about the "troublemakers" here in Admissions? The Shay's, Lamesha's? why were they fired? As far as Lisa, Bobbie, and George are concerned, they are still kissing up to the executives. They have to- they bought houses and brought their families up from Louisiana, and can't afford to go back home now. They do not mean to be so brash with the employees. In fact, when no one is looking, you can really talk to them like a normal person, and they act like one to. They only ask for more TA's because their job is on the line, because John Ferris has run the university so far down in the toilet, that they need twice the TA's to make a buck now. (See paragraph 2 regarding Deann's car and house.) On an ending note, let's not forget about the poor Louisiana employees who did not come up here to Missouri. I've read all of the stories and blogs. What's I'm most proud of is that all of these employees are better off since they stayed in Louisiana, and helped rebuild. They have better paying jobs, better benefits, and they didn't fall under the control of Deann WAndler, John Ferris, Pat Campbell, and Tom Macon. Good luck to all ex-employees. Just think about little ole me up here, working my 40 hours a week in Admissions, working 2 hours a week on my studies, so I can get my $5,000 and raise. It's easy money, and the best part is, I can choose to disclose it to future employers, or I can just rip it up.
