SUCK IT is this guy.

Pile of shit:
Well, it's our friendly neighborhood child stalker Pile of Dead Kids.  Who knows, Pile could be the next duct tape rapist?  Pile do you feel better now that you tried to split up a family?  You are a real winner.  WOW!!!

Why should anyone look at the CEDU forum?  I believe CEDU closed.  You should check the thread title, Pile.  This is Academy at Sisters.

As you well know, the heads of the hydra that is CEDU keep cropping up again and again. For some reason, CEDU philosophy, methodologies and protocols have worked their way into more than just a program or two in the state of Oregon.

Mount Bachelor Academy was, of course, the most infamous one of late ... due, for the most part, to their utilization of the Lifesteps seminars/workshops which were based on CEDU's seminars/workshops. Another Aspen program in Oregon which also uses Lifesteps is NorthStar.

And here, in this very thread, with regard to Academy at Sisters, a number of references and connections to CEDU have already cropped up...

Speaking of NorthStar Center, that is, a program which utilized (and probably still does) the "emotional growth" Lifesteps seminar curriculum based on CEDU's seminars/workshops, and Chesley Strowd, Admissions Director at Academy of Sisters, which utilizes a parent coaching system involving ex-CEDU staff and admins... It turns out that... Strowd actually took on a job at NorthStar as their Admissions Director for a brief period in 2008. How ever brief that was, I do not know, but she subsequently returned to Academy of Sisters where she had been employed since 2003.

Here's the announcement from Struggling Teens:

Whooter:
But Ursus, she is an admissions director.  You seem to think because you can find a connection that the place is CEDU based.  When CEDU closed there were tons of people out of work and where would they go?  To other programs!  If McDonalds closed then people may flock to Burger King because people typically stay within the area that they know.  But if we went to Burger King you probably couldn't get a Big Mac.

Each program has a model that they run by and employees that they hire are trained to implement this model.  If the employee which use to work for McDonalds started making special sauce and putting it on hamburgers he would be fired.  The same with the employees that came to programs from CEDU, they are trained to the model that is established.

What if you found out that an employee was Jewish, would that make the program Jewish based?  or if an employee was found to be a member of the KKK, would that redefine the whole program?
Maybe they are CEDU and Maybe they are not but that needs to be determined by what model they work to and the components that support it...i.e life steps etc.

Do you see what I mean?
