In the CBS tv show, "The Good Wife," student loan debt, 90/10, gainful employment, and the exploitation of military veterans is fictionalized in the "Colliseum University" case. Sound familiar?

There are always going to be those who rage against education for some reason. They will create false stories and, in this case, even get the liberal media to do their bidding. I say, "enough." Keep the dream alive for students. Let them know that no matter how hard "the man" works to stop them, they will get an education, and they will achieve. This is the essence of success, and this is what had always driven EDMC since its founding so many years ago.

I saw the show. It was spot on. A lot of people across the US will have seen it too...,
Are you saying EDMC would do this? I am appalled that you would try to imply that my beloved employer would even think of taking advantage of the men and women that served.
I saw it and was glued to it. Whoever wrote the script was very aware of current events involving for-profit colleges. There was even a line of dialog where they referenced Corinthian! The demise of for-profit schools is now so familiar that they write it in the script for a TV series? Wow! I loved it! Giggled all the way through it, especially when the script was so realistic!. And to think that the current events were not public knowledge? I LOVED the fact that for-profit college scam has now hit a prime time series. Please, students........ Watch this episode of The Good Wife and pay attention to the case involving "Colliseum College". It is a true depiction of what is going on right now.
