Haven’t heard anything about DeVry in the news, nor any feedback on how courses are going, especially with online. Any opinions or real world experience?

So the Cogswell goal for DeVry was a shut-down and skim off operating funds?

INTREDASTING.

Any evidence or support for this?

Thanks.

Ask Charles Restivo - the new CEO who is over Cogswell. The plan was only to use operating money and close out schools.

Why DeVry vs other universities? One word. Financial. DeVry tempts students with maximum financial aid.

How is DeVry unique right now? Why would a student enroll there vs WGU or SNHU for example?

I think the best way to capture the feeling is that DU has achieved a 100% siloed or atomization effect through ruthless online-ing of everything. So what matters is to have an internet connection so you can log onto a DV platform to check certain boxes and type the same emails over and over which will trigger a direct deposit to your account periodically. I think this is what RP used to think when he talked about "transformation" and being "cutting-edge".

It would be nice to hear what real students and real employees actually think of the school's practices and prospects, but we're not hearing it. If there are legitimate students with realistic goals and success stories, we're not seeing that either. It's like they are all in the mob aiding and abetting each other. They know it's a fraud and a scam based on mostly lies, enrolling mostly fraudsters, but employees won't speak up so they can get paid and students are riding the scam for an easy pass and loan refund checks so everything is great.

Maybe it is the whole "no news is good news" idea. That or its just withering away into nothingness. Pretty much everyone I knew who worked there has long since laid off or got out before they were next on the chopping block.
