Missing Money

So the money is still missing. No idea where it is. Might explain another..."interrogation". And this one was ugly. Really, really ugly. Just going to leave it at that.

Investigations and lawsuits

By the time any of these investigations and lawsuits finish the campuses will be long closed, the money dried up and the culprits moved on to scam others. By some accounts 5 years or more. Very sad.

This is on greedy corporate employees

The one thing I hope these students realize is that is wasn’t your ‘grad team’ or their managers that put the school in this position. It’s the greedy corporate employees whom made this happen. Every employee that walked into those buildings each day... — read more

Nondisclosure Agreements

South University Stands Alone

Through all the wreckage, I find it interesting that the oldest school South University (Est. 1899) of the three former DCEH brands, still remains and is growing. Sources before the collapse told me that South University made 30+ million in 2018... — read more 

Accreditors -DO YOUR JOB

No More Ai Online

Since EDMC eliminated a lot of ground classes and made them online only, students at the ground campuses need online classes to complete degree requirements to graduate. So really, how long can the EPF locations stay open without online classes??

Pittsburgh art institute closed?

3/8 Back Pay Received

Pleasantly surprised to have received the back pay due to me after the shortage on March 1. Online adjuncts, check your accounts. Argosy did provide the rest of my pay for last term, as promised.

Is Argosy *legally* closed as of 3/8?

Legally, the receiver needs court approval, and he doesn’t have it. The judge said he’s vacating the receiver order unless The Recieveship Possee can amaze him with a new dance on Monday. What happens when the receivership is vacated? What plans does... — read more
