Univ of Phoenix’s latest attempt to be legitimate

Share

University of Phoenix just released a 77-page propaganda research report that was supposed to provide bi-partisan, independent data on the for-profit vs non-profit debate.
It did not.

What is DID provide was more proselytizing based on the same old data that University of Phoenix has been using since the beginning of this issue.

Let’s start with the title: “For-Profit Colleges and Universities: America’s Least Costly and Most Efficient System of Higher Education”. Right, got it. No bias there.

Even Jorge Klor de Alva, President of Nexus and author of its first report, acknowledged that the center’s first paper comes across “like
an overly pointed, policy-advocacy piece.”

While “more analytical” reports are in the works, it makes me wonder why Nexus would publish a report like this one which is clearly not their norm. Read the full article over at The Chronicle and let me know what you think.
