You expect the president of a college to travel and spend some money, but some students and staff at Montgomery College think their president is spending too much money. The news 4 iteam digs into the colleges spending records to find out where your taxpayer dollars are actually going. Financial aid working to pay back the financial aid. Reporter working hard to put themselves through school. I saved a little bit from high school and im currently working right now. Reporter these students say they pay about 2,000 a semester. Im working hard at school. Reporter the news 4 iteam started investigating Montgomery College after receiving multiple letters from staffers telling us they think the schools president spends too much money on travel and transportation. Dr. Pollards contract which shows she receives a 281,000 salary and gets an additional 3,000 Housing Allowance each month for her home in germantown. The schools board of trustees also agreed to pay for all of her workrelated travel and for her wife to accompany her. The records we obtained show dr. Pollard spent more than 70,000 since 2013 traveling to cities nearly 40 other destinations. We even found a hotel receipt showing a 1,700 charge for five days at the marriott in d. C. Just 20 miles from her house because, the school says, she helped host a conference here. While county and federal policy prohibits employees from using taxpayer money to upgrade their flights, we found the rules at Montgomery College are different. Records show dr. Pollard spent wife has pain from Knee Replacement surgery. They spent 3,700 on their extra and overweight baggage. One example, 3,400 just for airfare for a trip to honolulu and austin that doesnt include what they spent on their five extra bags for a work conference. After spending 2,700 at the hough it tell in hawaii they spent anothered 2,700 at the four seasons in austin racking up room service including an 80 breakfast and a 49 dinner. The same night dr. Pollard submitted a receipt for never 127 dinner. Thats ridiculous. That should not it should be going back here to the people who are actually paying, to the professors who are working really hard. Reporter we also found at least 40 receipts for a pricey trips to the airport at about 175 a pop each way. From American University in washington, welcome to reporter and another 292 for a 15mile ride to d. C. s public radio station. The average student who comes to my college is receiving pell grants. Reporter when she was interviewed on how to make Community College more affordable to make college more affordable not only for students but also their to help them be successful. Reporter a roundtrip taxi ride, the iteam calculated, would have cost less than a third of that price. Were all working towards trying to even pay for the tuition and the fact that she has all of this money is just kind of ridiculous. Reporter students questioned why she was even using the car service when the college is also paying 850 a month for her car, plus all her gas, maintenance, than 45,000 on her car alone since 2013. I definitely feel like it should go 110 back to the students. Someone works for the money. Reporter both dr. Pollard and the board of trustees declined our request for an interview. The college with afford the president s trips which have improved the colleges visibility and helped foster . And partnerships that yield grants, scholarships, employee training agreements, and more. The Montgomery College trutees greatly values dr. Derionne pollards vision and resolutely supports dr. Pollards management initiatives, Strategic Partnership advances and stewardship of resources and service to our students and community. But we also received complaints from staffers who want to know why the school is paying more than 10,000 a month for yet another vehicle, this time an suv and an offduty Police Officer to pick dr. Pollard up even though the college has its own unarmed campus security, records we obtained show that starting in february the college began paying 52 an hour for this armed driver to work between 10 to 15 hours a day. While drivers are not unusual, the International Association of campus Law Enforcement tells the iteam there are very few university or College President s who have armed detail on a daily basis. Montgomery college told the hired the armed driver after receiving Credible Threats against dr. Pollard. When the iteam pressed for more details, the school showed us documents about a man who, quote, appeared to be homeless who tried to gain access here at the Administrative Offices of the college and documents about a website that use a racial slur against dr. Pollard when she first became president of the school six years ago. Since hiring the armed driver the school says dr. Pollard has Facebook Post using insensitive language about her. The school asked us not to publish these documents citing safety concerns. They receive funding from montgomery county. Its not something that you can take lightly and you dont want to secondguess this, and so the amount of money were talking about is relatively small if you end up with incidents that i think could lead to greater harm. 160,000 on travel, meals, and transportation since 2013. Thats the equivalent of a semesters worth of tuition for about 80 students. She did issue a statement overnight after this story first aired stating shes helped raise, quote, 23 million in student scholarships and, quote, 75 million in grants and called the story on the complaints about her spending, quote, an colleges.

Theyre continuing this message of powerful women. Yeah
