THE summer season for entertainment has started early at the Blackburn Coliseum - sorry, College.
Short of money only a few weeks ago and about to make staff redundant, it is now employing outside consultants to check on room occupancy.
This information should be in the Management Information System, from registers. But that system does not work.
Is that why two new, overpaid bureaucrats are needed, but lecturers who attend to the core business are made redundant? Or, paid much less?
Why does a college which has management students up to MBA level, doing projects on real industry, have to pay consultants? Does the performance-related pay of the principal depend upon it?
If money is available for consultants, why don't they look into a really important problem - why students can't get out of bed in the morning.
