Senator Durbin has put it in writing......and is awaiting a response from the U.S. Attorney General
"We write today to urge the Department of Justice to fully investigate the misconduct of the recently failed for-profit education company Corinthian Colleges, Inc. (“Corinthian”) and of its executive leadership. We further request that the Department IDENTIFY THE TOOLS IT HAS AT ITS DISPOSAL TO HOLD EXECUTIVES OF FOR-PROFIT EDUCATION COMPANIES PERSONALLY ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR INVOLVEMENT IN THE COMPANIES' VIOLATIONS OF FEDERAL CIVIL OR CRIMINAL LAWS///
CORINTHIAN'S collapse over the past year has come at the cost of hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars and at the expense of thousands of students who were enticed to enroll in - and to incur massive debt for - failing school programs. At the same time that Corinthian’s executives were enriching themselves on federal student loan dollars, with the CEO making an annual salary that exceeded $3 million, allegations of Corinthian’s misbehavior grew increasingly widespread. These included ALLEGATIONS THAT CORINTHIAN OFFICIALS FALSIFIED AND MANIPULATED DATA THAT WERE PROVIDED TO STUDENTS AND TO THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, among other deceits and misrepresentations." http://www.durbin.senate.gov/newsroom/press-releases/senators-call-for-attorney-general-investigation-of-corinthian-colleges-failure
