The U.S. Department of Education has fined Michigan’s Baker College $2.5 million for years of “substantial misrepresentation” of career outcomes, following a 2022 ProPublica-Detroit Free Press report detailing the college’s low graduation rates and the heavy debt that many students shoulder.
Our 2022 investigation: Baker College promised students a better life. But few ever graduated, and even those who did often left with crushing debt and useless degrees.
@ProPublica "A Baker graduate, Bechtel said he took out more than $40,000 in student loans for an online associate degree."
Sounds like somebody got an education, or at least a schooling.
Unfortunately, "nonprofit" in higher education does not always mean "nonpredatory".
