Alliant University's San Diego campus could be sold
As far as why students would choose to enroll for undergraduate degrees - I really don't know. However, the training for psychologists is outstanding. As others have mentioned, CSPP has trained about half of the licensed psychologists in California. The odds are that CSPP grads have touched the life of someone you know. Being a professional practice university, the emphasis of the doctoral programs is to either be a skilled consumer of research (PsyD) or to be able to conduct more original research (PhD) while emphasizing clinical competency more than a traditional scientist-practitioner model would. This means that the people who enter these programs are dedicated to providing the best empirically-supported treatments to populations in need (e.g. children with autism, veterans with PTSD, people in chronic pain, to name a few). Other programs, especially at public universities, are more heavily focused on creating original research. While this is a noble endeavor indeed, most enter CSPP's doctoral programs because they are particularly interested in being good clinicians. If this school goes in the way of the for-profits, it could vastly impact the mental health services and professionals throughout California.— October 18, 2013 10:13 p.m.

Alliant University's San Diego campus could be sold
> "We are only talking to University Ventures Fund about the Benefit Corporation idea," Cox wrote to his colleagues. And then came a line that frightened San Diego students: "The other strategic option we have been considering is to sell the San Diego campus as a way of raising capital." If they are only talking, then why is he using hard selling tactics on his students via his Moodle forum? It seems that the set-up for this sell has been building up for quite a while on his part. Furthermore, everyone I have spoken with re: selling the campus would give up the campus in a heartbeat if it meant maintaining our non-profit status and abolishing this outrageous b-corp proposal.— October 18, 2013 9:47 p.m.
