I did write this in the article. Is there something I should add?
"On GlassDoor, one former South employee alleged that "the students know the school is a scam and they are only signing up for the student loan stipend checks. Everyone who works there is fully aware of this as well."

So what is South University doing about consumers who are abusing the Title IV system? What do you call a person who would take out a student loan they could never repay--an abuser, a victim, or something else? What do you call a veteran who squanders their GI Bill funds?
@1vyo+1kFxvvbj+2 that doesn’t fit the narrative that is being covered so we will not talk about stipend students. Everyone is a model student incapable of lying.
DS you need to be on the other end of that line and talk the people that write these reviews and tell these stories. Not to take away from some but a majority are truly fables put out by students who attended the school for the wrong reasons.
@1nao+1kFxvvbj, the bigger issue is the tens of thousands of student debtors. While South University does help some attain a better future, it hurts many more people than it helps. Using FOIA information from the FTC, I have read many of those grievances--and some are heartbreaking.
Prayers out to the individual suing, I cannot even imagine the extreme pain and suffering they have have gone through.
Much better for one's mental health than this...
