DeVos ends investigations into price-gouging private universities

NYT: For-profit college fraud investigations scaled back under Betsy DeVos
Quote:

An investigation into DeVry University, now known as Adtalem Global Education, "ground to a halt early last year," and later, over the summer, DeVos picked Julian Schmoke, a former dean at the school, to be the team's supervisor, the Times reported.
Meanwhile, probes into for-profit education companies Bridgepoint Education and Career Education Corp. also "went dark," the newspaper said. The Times reported that former employees of those institutions are working for DeVos as well, including Robert S. Eitel, a former Bridgepoint attorney who is now her senior counselor, and Diane Auer Jones, a former Career Education employee who is now a senior postsecondary education adviser at the department. The department's recently confirmed general counsel, Carlos G. Muñiz, provided consulting services to Career Education, the newspaper said.
Taking the cue from how Trump staffed departments like the EPA, DeVos has hired the people previously thought to be conning students, charging high tuition paid for with loans, by false claims of employment prospects after graduation that weren't forthcoming.
