What kind of strategies could help DeVry improve in performance?

Some guy from DeVry appeared today at the Negotiated Regulations Hearings today. I heard every word but could not figure out what he was asking for.

What a relief after I left here a few months ago. What is the Trolling like now compared to what it was half a year ago, are there any improvements? No matter what, I would love to hear that there are improvements, if anything because of people who... —  read more
