Thread regarding University of Phoenix layoffs

ASU or GCU

Honestly, I hope either one of these schools buy UoPhx and take over. They could keep most employees and it’s resources to expand. That would be awesome! Brian Muller or Michael Crow if your listening, come save us!

I agree with Post ID: @SoamnCC-rtx. No self-respecting institution is going to purchase UOP even at a fire sale. Remember ITT and Corinthian? They still had thousands of students but no buyer could be found to support them. They are failed institutions. UOP and DeVry among other proprietary institutions are considered failing schools just like Syria, South Sudan, Somalia, and Yemen are failed states. No one is going to rescue them and no one will save UOP. It (we) are a failing institution. Who wants a student population replete with remedial students, many of whom could barely manage the rigors of a community college curriculum? No one!

I used to work at ASU and they were and still are a poor school. Now I'm at uophx and asking ASU to buy uophx haha is like asking toys r us to buy Apple! I remember scrounging for paper and staples at asu, they also paid their staff pennies on the dollar compared to uophx. You all need to do your research before suggesting stupid things like this or maybe this is why some of you are gone, because you suggested stupid things like this at uophx!

Thanks for the kudos yeah I think it be best if GCU or ASU bought us and I’m not saying retain the University of Phoenix theme. I’m talking about the workforce the resources having them expand what they can do once these investors plan to sell us. It would be nice to be under the umbrella of either of those two colleges and finally feel a sense of security and growth for the first time in a long time. Hell I wouldn’t even care if they was university of Arizona the bought us.

That honestly is the best idea I've heard in a while for UOP. It would be awesome for GCU to buy the school and Brian take over the reins that he was kicked out of. This could be a great school again. We saw Brian save GCU maybe he can save UOP.

No one is going to buy us. Our reputation is in the gutter. We will only have a chop shop sale. On the other hand, ASU and GCU have an excellent reputation. Hell, GCU has a Div I basketball team. We are toxic and there’s no way they want to even be mentioned in the same sentence as us. Turn out the lights, the party is over.

BTW - when do we start paying off executives, directors, VP’s, etc? When will that happen? It would be nice to shed some $300,000+ salaries!

Hahahah! That was funny. But ya never know. The investors are known to sell and if the price is right, maybe one of those two would be interested.
