Pros
-Good educational programs -Good teachers, with real experience in the field. -Very nice facilities -Strong past legacy as a privately-owned company.
Cons
-Extremely bureaucratic environment since being taken over by a publicly-traded company. -Poor leadership. -Mismanaged finances. -Relentless pursuit of taxpayer money, even to the detriment of the program. -Taking on excessive numbers of students who are not capable of or interested in completing the program successfully in hopes of bringing in additional state funding. -Fiscal dishonesty in financial forecasting and accounting. -Over-reliance on self-generated zero-interest loans with sky-high default rates. -Tarnishing the reputation of a previously reputable school, along with the value of the diploma for past graduates by diluting the student base and rigor of the program.
