McBroom takes a stand

Director of the Pierce College Farm Center Robert McBroom presented his argument to the Los Angeles Community College District Board of Trustees during the meeting on Wednesday, Nov. 5, in the Great Hall at Pierce College. Included in McBroom’s argument were allegations that Pierce College president Kathleen Burke has never been to the Farm Center.

McBroom also presented the Trustees with a voice recording of Vice President of Administrative Services Rolf Schleicher. In the recording Schleicher said people have told him that he can make between 5 to 10 million a year from the 32-acre property without having to spend money on it. Along with the McBroom’s, supporters from the Save the Farm Center group called for an investigation regarding the closure.
