This school has been a meme, even to normies, for like 20 years. Why would anyone ever go to this school?

Usually people pick for-profit school for two reasons: poor grades so they couldn't get into the university of their choice or don't want to waste time with GE courses. Although apparently it didn't have THAT bad of reputation until a few years ago. Doesn't matter anymore though since it's closing. Pretty strange that I saw commercials for it a month ago.

My neighbor went there and he got a job as an IT guy. I think he did it back before it was actually a meme though.

Perfect example of the free market fucking everything up lol

"No, the government totally shouldn't have a hand in higher education"... fucking America, when will we learn?

> Government should protect people from poor decisions.

What are you talking about? The government subsidizing higher education with federal loans is the reason for-profit schools even exist. If there were no federal loans colleges wouldn't have been able to increase costs so much as people would not be getting the money to pay for it. If college costs didn't increase so much, for-profit schools wouldn't be a thing, especially without federal loans to help people.

It's just like if mortgages were illegal. If you couldn't sell 30 years of your life in advance the cost of houses would be much lower and you'd save up for 10-15 years to buy them in full.

I taught at one. A summer night class. The students were great because a lot of them spent time in jail

ITT also made bank off government subsidies for veterans, the GI Bill.

If we would just let our government spend money on public universities in the first place, there would be no need for this bullshit loan system.

>wageslaves in their 20s and 30s should pay for your college with their taxes

Nice try, Carl. Bernie is out the race BTW. Go home and shill your cuckery to your real mommy and current daddy pls. thx.

Yeah, they should. So paying for K-12 is fine, but once it gets to a point where it might actually get someone a job, that's too much? I would rather my taxes go towards education than towards bombing some fucking sand people halfway around the world.

I'm good with it. My wife got her nursing degree from there before we met. She's so deep in the hole with the student loans she (we) can't see the sky.

BUT! There's a pretty good chance that the loans are going to be forgiven due to their predatory recruitment practices they engaged in to get the students to come there.

this is what happens when fannie may and freddie mac, pell grants, subsidized loans.

easy money taking governmnet money when "everyone deserves education". When will we learn that you can't give poor retarded morons loans?

You don't need to learn it, you already know it. It's just you either voted those decision makers into power, or you sat watching cartoons on election day

I promise 90% of colleges would fail if they didn't receive stateand federal funding. Youre fucking retarded.
