For-profit "colleges" and "universities" are lying about "career placement" rates to potential students to get them to enroll. Who knew?
Now the Federal government is proposing a new rule that makes it easier for students to sue the schools for not getting a "placement".
It seems when they say 99% of students are successful in "career placement", they include all the students who couldn't find work and instead enrolled in more education programs.
READ about it HERE on the Education Watchdog blog.
I checked the long list of lying colleges and only two small tier Florida Colleges were listed as cooking their numbers.
I wonder when a similar rule will be issued that a K-12 student who cannot read, write, spell and make change upon graduation can sue the School District Board? That is when Common Core will be dropped.
