Lawmakers should take “appropriate legal action” against the proposed University of Phoenix acquisition, an attorney for the Legislature said Thursday.

In a 10-page letter to the Legislature, made public Friday, legislative legal counsel Elizabeth Bowen says the State Board of Education has no power to acquire Phoenix, and move the for-profit online school under the umbrella of a nonprofit aligned with the University of Idaho.

“Neither the board nor the (U of I) is private, and they have no legal right to act as if they are,” Bowen said in her letter.
