Mott's former president commuted from Virginia to Michigan
Briefly

Mott Community College's expenditure of over $78,000 on former president Beverly Walker-Griffea's travel raises concerns, as she resided in Virginia rather than fulfilling her contract of living within 20 miles of the college. The costs covered her travel, accommodations, and meals over two years. While her performance remained reportedly unaffected with her absence, board members expressed doubts about her effectiveness as a college representative in the community during her travels. Walker-Griffea transitioned to a new role directing the Michigan Department of Lifelong Education in late 2023, living in Michigan after leaving Mott.
