"Superfluous" degree from a diploma mill[edit]

He essentially purchased an undergraduate degree. Century University is a diploma mill. --67.165.10.217 (talk) 07:00, 8 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Irellevant. His Achievements Are Outsatanding![edit]

Jim Donald is a great leader who inspired thousands of employees at Starbucks. His contributions lead the company to phenominal growth. It is now clear that the decline in the stock price was due to the economy and not Jim Donald's leadership. Jim would have been the best man to navigate the company through tough economical times. The decision to oust him caused a rift through the ranks that made the company's problems even worse. Since his removal from the CEO's chair, the stock has declined another 50%. (ChrisWilson4400 (talk) 16:16, 19 January 2009 (UTC)) Jim donald ran Pathmark and he was the best. Employees still speak about him in a very positive way. He was a hands on guy and your post is right. Jim held starbucks together. The economy was at fault.
