Depends on how fast the enrollment drops

Depends on how fast the enrollment drops. I suspect CCI is getting looted as we speak. As long as a campus makes money then it stays open. If it doesn't make money then it closes down. My feeling is that CCI is likely to have an enrollment implosion... — read more

CCI is going to get run into the ground

CCI is going to get run into the ground. Get them student loan dollars for as long as you can. Anybody worthy of going to college is not going to CCI in the first place so giving everybody an A doesn't hurt anybody but the student.
