Not profit colleges have been misleading causing many student into dept because the school may not have properly trained students for work. Florida's attorney general announced an investigation into Kaplan and for other institutions. The new rules are meant to make these schools responsible for to protect students from abuse.

  1. This article is relevant to our course because education reform is high on the public agenda list. Limiting how much universities cost sounds like a reasonable proposal. If students are not being prepared by their universities they should not be forced to pay the lofty prices. Education should be costly, however inept education costs nothing but lost time, and money. Education reform must be lead by efficiency and cost-effective pricing.
