@96264 - Low class attendance reduces educational benefit of being a student , thus the "worthless degree" and cumulating in "gainfull employment" legislation knocking the program out of existence. End result, un employable kid with a boatload of debt, that will most likely not be able to secure a mortgage for a home, buy / finance a reasonable car... it's a downward spiral, just like your toilet... ugh.... Things got to change...
With regard to roll call at the end of class, its another student pet trick. See if the books show lower then enrollment claims, they are in even more trouble. So what to do? Tell the student with a wink that they will still get credit no matter how late to class they show up. Students take the bait thinking they are outsmarting the system while in reality, they are being used as pawns buy EDMC to pad their otherwise low attendance numbers.
917- The schools purchased by ECMC are unaffected.
@sudonym - Yeah, it's a stupid policy setup by stupid people.
is anyone concerned about the crazy attendance policy at Ai? Only have to sign in to be marked there. If you enter at five minutes to the close of class you are still marked as being in class for the session. INSANITY!!!

917- If you have to even ask this question, you are a moron. Read the news, familiarize yourself with the facts (Not the ones that the company tries to fill your head with), but the REAL facts, and let us know. Doucheface
Wow even after ECMC bought them out as a non-profit...more to follow on the industry as a whole
