UMPI new masters programs

[karehiro]

You're new here and appear to be an eager beaver. There was a job several months ago listed for the healthcare administration and I know it existed because someone I know applied for it. It is not the job you are seeing now.

They have to have hired faculty for positions you don't see such as math and science because there are faculty teaching those courses! They have had courses in those 2 fields since the program was created.

UMPI is VERY sloooooooow to do things. Yes, there is a spot on the new website that says the program is coming soon. Soon doesn't mean anything. The move to Brightspace took well over a year to happen even though they were all set to go. It ended up delayed by over a year. I have far more experience with UMPI than you and understand how sloooooow they are to do anything.

Well I've been a registered member here since January 2022. If that counts as "new" then you have quite an interesting definition of what that is considering your tenure is a year and some handful of months more? I've also been perusing the Degreeinfo and Degreeforum boards for years before that so don't mistake my lack of posts here as a lack of knowledge on these issues. I have been the first one here to introduce 3 different CBE programs in my 3 threads to this forum before anyone here even became aware of them precisely because I do stay on top of news and announcements.

Again, that's fine if UMPI is slow with things. I haven't stated at all that these programs are "here coming right now" or even "coming in the next term". That's a strawman argument for something which I have not argued for or stated at all. However "not having a start date" or even programs being delayed/slow-walked doesn't equate to being a "rumor".

This is the first time they are posting job vacancies for these specific programs for YourPace. You claim that these programs are "rumors" when the actual official website states that its "coming soon" and now there are job ads for the specific positions when previously there were none. You state there's been vacancies before August of this year, when there's absolutely no evidence of it being posted anywhere, whether by official announcement or an informal forum post or reference. I already posted a ZipRecruiter classifieds from last year showing vacancies for YourPace adjunct positions (the job postings which are now closed) so it would be incredibly simple to disprove what I'm saying and show any other job vacancy postings from those previous times, if there is any evidence for that.
