Brownsville resident and frequent Brownsville Herald Letter to the Editor contributor Italo J. Zarate strongly disagrees with the termination of TSC President Lily Tercero.
Zarate's view of the matter seems to dovetail with the views of TSC Trustee Dr. Reynaldo Garcia, who Zarate quotes in his letter published in the Brownsville Herald.
According to Zarate, Dr. Tercero "met all the objectives given to her by the board of trustees and some say she even went the extra mile."
"Normally someone with these credentials gets a pay raise, not a pink slip," Zarate says. What Zarate did not mention in his letter is that Tercero had been actively seeking positions at other community colleges, submitting at least two applications in the last 4 months.
Mr. Zarate describes Tercero as "a strong woman who I hope will beat these culprits in court."
Actually, if Tercero appears in court any time soon, it may be as a defendant for her unethical and likely illegal bypassing of the Board of Trustees to unilaterally sign a million dollar windstorm contract with an insurance vendor.
Not communicating with the Board of Trustees seemed to be a bad Tercero habit as a once vaunted nursing program fell into probation without any communication from Tercero that things weren't going well.
Even before these administrative issues developed, complaints about "micromanagement" emanated from faculty. Not surprisingly, under Tercero the faculty attrition rate has been scary. Educators bristle at being told how to teach by administrators, especially when salary is relatively low.
Italo Zarate and Reynaldo Garcia are simply wrong about Tercero. Her departure is mandatory for TSC to regroup and grow.

Nena knows.
Tell it all, Nena.
Dr. Tercero is a strong woman and has a great deal of influence outside of this community. Brownsville discriminates against outsiders and these two strikes were against her from the outset, but when she signed the contract on insurance without board approval...it was an easy strike three. Dr. Tercero was really doomed from the beginning in Brownsville. Now will the board give the job to a local....someone they think they can control?????? That's how we hire the city manager, and others.
It's not just Nena that knows. Everyone knows you're an idiot, Duardo ! Can't understand why Barton doesn't press charges on you for harassment . Grow the fuck up, fool!
Nena will soon tell it all
Actually, Duardo has the legal goods on Barton, cause Jim posted a comment saying DP-M had HIV. he removed it after someone told him it was libelous, but, then, nothing you delete is ever deleted. Plus now Barton says DP-M is on disability benefits, which is not true. There's more being gathered against Jim.
Adela will hire a puppy to lead TSC. Herrera will follow. Someone that will jump for Adela's bone.
Quit giving Adela so much credit. She is only one vote.
If it's in Barton's blog, it's only half of the story.
