to shut down..leaving 8000 unemployed..and students stuck with huge loans and few jobs are in dire straights,, What the Fed to do? Forgive these millions in loans by sticking the tax payers or telling these 40,000 students,,,that they are responsible .
This is what exactly happens when Govt. is run by those (mostly repubs) who believe they never met a regulation which they did not hate..
There were all sorts of warnings concerning their tactics, but its too late now..
I personally knew of a student who got some sort of nursing accreditation, who's educational experience never had her inside a legitimate Drs office or hospital.

(32,046 posts)The guest list for a private State Department dinner on higher- education policy was taking shape when Secretary of State Hillary Clinton offered a suggestion.
In addition to recommending invitations for leaders from a community college and a church-funded institution, Clinton wanted a representative from a for-profit college company called Laureate International Universities, which, she explained in an email to her chief of staff that was released last year, was the fastest growing college network in the world.
There was another reason Clinton favored setting a seat aside for Laureate at the August 2009 event: The company was started by a businessman, Doug Becker, who Bill likes a lot, the secretary wrote, referring to her husband, the former president.
Nine months later, Laureate signed Bill Clinton to a lucrative deal as a consultant and honorary chancellor, paying him $17.6 million over five years until the contract ended in 2015 as Hillary Clinton launched her campaign for president.

This article was a surprise to me, but it is from a legitimate - though right leaning - paper.
