The title of this article is misleading. As far as the program goes, we (the majority of the students) feel that this was a very positive experience. The community as a whole was mislead. Two years ago the Daily Journal published article after article talking about how ACS was going to have a relationship with MSCTC to "...offer new IT classes geared toward training new ACS employees" (Originally published 09:21 a.m., September 30, 2006). In regards to the JOBZ commitment with the city, in an article dated Aug. 9, 2006 the DJ printed "In return, the company agrees to provide a certain number of jobs within the community. “They told us they would employ a minimum of 50 people,” said Stanislawski. “But I think it will be more than that.”" Where is ACS now with that benchmark? Why was that not reported in the article? This is what the article should have been about.

olson736.. Did you even read the article? Andrew Digre and I (who haven't even graduated yet) have accepted positions with Volt Technologies as Microsoft SharePoint Support Engineers! I had personally sent out numerous resumes and been to a hand full of interviews before accepting this position. None of the graduates are lazy. We never expected to be handed a job by ACS. We did expect that ACS would honor its commitment to the community and the JOBz program.
