After receiving termination letters on Saturday, AiC employees are now being told to come in on Monday. Supposedly there is a retraction letter they are going to issue. Letters that went out said admissions to remain on payroll until 8/28, last day... — read more
Were they ever non profit?
The article about the Charlotte school say that they were for profit and DCEH never got non profit status. Isn’t this fraud in a big way since all the schools have been telling students the school is non profit? The faculty and staff also was led to... — read more
Severance...
Do we think that’s happening, or no? Concrete information would be appreciated, but as always, wild conjecture and angry banter are certainly welcome.
Wire Fraud?
If DCEH and subsidiaries AU and Ai have been advertising online as a nonprofit, and recently the US DOE stated it has not approved them to be recognized as such, is DCEH committing wire fraud? https://legaldictionary.net/wire-fraud/ "the schools were... — read more
Monday
Sure is going to be a sh-- show, right? I wonder if there’s going to be extra security or if we are just going to be waking up to padlocked doors.
Teach out?
What student in their right mind would continue to sign up for classes at a school that has no accreditation? I can't imagine that there will be any students left to "teach out."
Ai Campuses July Start
What Campuses have conclusive information on their July Start? Who knows for sure if Admission called all their prospect students and told them to stay home? Please post your campus name Thank you
STOP THE BASHING!!!!!!

C.B grasping at straws
I hear on the "oops we aren't doing this call" after the DOE clapped back at DCEH, C.B threatened all the presidents. That's a way to lead !

Dream Center had one job to accomplish this week and they couldn't even get that right.
Makes one wonder if leadership (I use the term leader lightly) can't figure out how to properly coordinate closing schools then how are they fit to keep the other schools open. Hmmmm?
Announcement
Our president said she would be giving an announcement around 12... no announcement. Haven’t seen her.
How do you deal with stress (work related)?
