This has happened because many of the students of these for-profit schools fell for a snazzy sales pitch. They could have received a comparable, if not far superior education, at a local community college instead for far less money.

Education has become a commodity for most people these days, it is best to shop around for the best deal.

Brick and mortar schools will one day be obsolete....online universities will displace the high-cost, politcally slanted, high-ego traditional school with focused, superior academic learning.

Anyone that argues students will miss the ‘socialization’, just remember that they will also miss becoming advocates for socialism as well.

listening to parents over the years whose children are headed for college I am amazed at how many kids appear to be choosing colleges based on costs - the higher the costs the better. The parents want the cheaper state schools but always give in.
