Today Sunrise had a parent event and invited alumni who live in the area to join. It was really nice to be in groups and catch up with staff I haven't seen in a while. My friend and I were sitting in one of the houses during the second group hour when we both got a text saying "I need you to be in groups and acting appropriately while you're on campus." we were both confused since we didn't think we were being inappropriate and when I asked her about it she told me what Tiare Bridges, a staff member had said about us. In addition Tiare also reprimanded a staff, maybe for good reason in front of me and a few other students which is very disrespectful and highly unprofessional. It sucked hearing that since I went out of my way to reconnect with Sunrise that helped me a lot and go back to the same pettiness that I experienced while being there. I spoke to other alumni who felt the same way. Tiare Bridges is a higher up staff in managing positions and it seems like since she has a lot of power at Sunrise she feel she can treat students, staff and alumni wrongly since she's are the ones in control. I don't know why she does this but I do know that this isn't the first time something like this has happened and since it doesn't seem like anything is being done it sadly probably won't be the last. I hope this will get someone's attention since experiencing something like this doesn't make anyone feel welcomed or want to come back. Again, most of the Sunrise staff are incredible and have helped me so much and it sucks that one or two people can ruin what could have been a really good experience.
