Corruption in Sustainable Community Associates
Oberlin Review (April 21, 2006):
...SCA’s failure to properly vet potential vendors is a classic example of the inevitable pitfalls of delegating substantial operational control of a major development project to irresponsible, inept neophytes. This is the Rubicon where the insufficient rubber check meets the incandescent yellow brick road. Last time I inquired, despite legions of tree-huggers, Oberlin wasn’t blessed with a biodegradable bond rating. SCA’s profligate, pedigreed opportunists treat Oberlin’s municipal reserves like Paris Hilton’s trust fund.
