Sweetwater University to “Open” Soon?

GCU's CEO, Michael Clifford is from AZ. There, his father owned a radio station. Brand's self-appointed chief of staff, Tom Hassey, is from Az, and also owned a radio station. Coincidence? The good ol' boy network thrives in SUHSD. Here is an interesting read on Clifford: http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/college....

Sweetwater University to “Open” Soon?

A quick search for Grand Canyon University revealed the following disturbing, although completely expected, information: 1. According to Rip Off Report, "In August 11, 2008, the U.S. Department of Education filed a qui tam action under the False Claims Act for GCU’s receiving millions of dollars from the U.S. DOE while paying incentives and bonuses to enrollment counselors for any warm body who applies to get a degree at GCU (such incentives and bonuses are illegal and out of compliance with federal mandates). It was alleged in the federal civil complaint filed against GCU that GCU (1) “knowingly made false statements to get a false or fraudulent claim paid,” and (2) “knowingly submitted false records to get a false or fraudulent claim paid.” GCU settled out for $5.2 million." Further information can be found here: http://www.azcentral.com/business/articles/2010... 2. 188 BBB complaints http://www.bbb.org/phoenix/Business-Reviews/sch... 3. The accreditation agency, Higher Learning Commission, is under review by the US Dept. of Ed for accrediting shady online programs. http://chronicle.com/article/Inspector-Generals... 4. Individuals involved in student loan fraud tied to GCU http://www.postandcourier.com/article/20120221/... I found all of this in under 15 minutes.
