These individuals are simply acting as the salesmen for fraudulent, fake universities. Traditional universities are failing but for-profits are succeeding? Ha ha ha!!!

Great lecture! Far from zZZzZzz.. The actuality is without that piece of paper called a degree, one will have a lesser chance in advancing in their career. Also, i think it unquestionably crucial to those in the science field, law and upper medical fields to have degrees. I think some colleges has the stupidest majors like women's studies. What a waste of money.

I just gotten some request forms for "workshop" programs. Here's what I got from this mess 1) from both for-profit and state colleges 2) for profit needed $50 process fee 3) non-profit needed $25 process fee 4) for profit sent colorful pamphlet 5) non-profit sent normal snail-mail 6)state's program cost $125 7)for-profit program cost $150 8)total state $150 9)total for-profit $200 I trust neither but have vague interest in programs, not enough to wan't to pay even $15,000 for it though.

I have noticed that the Rossier School has a new on line masters degree that has really been pushing for new students. I'm interested to know how well that is working, and if the students graduating fom that program are considered to have the same quality of degree as traditional USC grads.
