Someone posting for Surendra Narain Naidoo and his Significant Federation may want to read this article in the San Diego Reader. Or perhaps they had and thought we wouldn't. http://www.sandiegoreader.com/news/2013/may/08/citylights1-profit-college-recruit-homeless/#

Wasn't it CEC that was placing fashion design grads as Gap clerks and calling it placed in the field? And someone was placing culinary arts grads in Denny's. Lots of shenanigans! I think that's the point. ED slammed for profits in the 80's (the massive rehaul of the Higher Ed Act in '92 was a direct result). Lots were put out of business, and for awhile it kept the industry in line. In the last decade or so the for profits have gotten really ballsy and the current players don't seem to have been around to know how they can get smacked down. Now it's time to make an example of one, and CCi appears to be the lucky winner!
Sure, but do they have enough cash to make payroll on July 11?
very enlightening. Until the gov't changes how federal monies are disbursed in relation to the actual education, I'm sorry to say but CCi will be one of many that fall into this hole. Others avoid some of the placement pitfalls by saying the students are self-employed by choice and effectively taking the school off the hook.
