Garcia lied, he said in an email to the staff today August 16, 2006 that Cox was fired because of incompetence, insubordination and unprofessional conduct which was also aired on tv today..
According to the below article that was written in April 18,2005 by the Del Mar College Foghorn, “ [Tuesday April 11, Mike Westergren, DMC in-house attorney, confirmed. “Ms. Cox is on administrative leave from the college, but we can’t reveal the details about her leave,” Westergren said.
DMC President Dr. Carlos Garcia also confirmed Cox’s status. “We do not want to hear rumors that (Cox) was fired,” Garcia said. ]
So Back then Carlos Garcia says COX wasn’t fired and NOW he Claims she was fired.

Theresa Cox — Del Mar College
dean of Equal Opportunity and
Affirmative Action, Equity, Access
and Compliance — was placed on
administrative leave with pay last
Tuesday April 11, Mike Westergren,
DMC in-house attorney, confirmed.
“Ms. Cox is on administrative
leave from the college, but we can’t
reveal the details about her leave,”
Westergren said.
DMC President Dr. Carlos Garcia
also confirmed Cox’s status.
“We do not want to hear rumors
that (Cox) was fired,” Garcia said.
Neither Dr. Garcia nor Westergren
could comment on the reasons for
Cox’s administrative leave.
“Mrs. Cox is on administrative
leave and her contract expires on
Aug. 31, 2006,” Garcia said. “DMC
has a restructuring of the administration,
and it is normal to have several
employees leave for several reasons,
such as retirement, offers for a new
employment or just moving out from
the city.”
Garcia also said an employee can
be on administrative leave for several
reasons, but did not elaborate. He
also denied reports that the action
was not by a complaint Cox filed
with the EEO against a DMC administrator
last year.
Garcia said he could not discuss
any matter related to an employee’s

compliant. He noted that several complaints
are filed around the year and college
takes each one of those serious and
investigate them thoroughly.
Garcia, however, said Cox was “ is still
an employee for the college.”
The Foghorn tried to contact Cox for a
comment, but she was not available at the
press time.
Because of Cox’s absence, Equal
Employment Opportunity and affirmative
action matters concerning employees will
now be handled by Westergren, Garcia
said. Westergren’s office is the East
Campus Administration Building, HA 111.
Complaints involving students will be
directed to José Rivera, vice president of
Student Development, Garcia said.
Rivera’s office is in the Harvin Student
Center-East Campus
