Why is Sierra College's Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) Becoming Politicized?

Ah, Terry McAteer. He's heavily involved in partisan politics. He's the spokesman for the failed Yes on Measure V campaign, which is being investigated by the Fair Political Practices Commission (FPPC) for possible fraudulent use of funds. And now, he's using taxpayer-funded public school Sierra College to bash his political opponents and further his political goals. 

(The FPPC is a five-member independent, non-partisan commission that has primary responsibility for the impartial and effective administration of the Political Reform Act. The Act regulates campaign financing, conflicts of interest, lobbying, and governmental ethics.)
