When a student calls in with questions about school, DONT ANSWER THEM!!!! Ignore the question and ask them a question to reveal all the problems they have had. The magic formula is at 12 minute 4 second mark of the call, you can answer questions... — read more 

I keep hearing about 12th week layoffs, does anyone know anything about this? Is it faculty, staff, programs? Somebody has to know. Did the person who posted the list get fired? It seems like there used to be good layoff info on this site but now... — read more 

So much talk about AUO lately. Usually we just read about SUO's Cinemax movie. What's going on over at AUO. Seems like a lot of disgruntled people.

AI is a SCAM. Do not allow them to take ANY more of your $$. They are not reinvesting it back into your education and are pocketing your future! Protest! Demand a Refund!! Demand Student Loan Forgiveness!

Get rid of most if not all managers in all departments and start over. They all blow monkey balls. Mr. GVP, We have now given you a few solutions to fix AUO. Free of charges

Will this end for-profit schools around US?

This will solve all of AUO's problems. The Campus Directors, N Walk, Ralpie and GVP should come out of their meetings and walk up and down the aisles. I have no doubt, them walking up in down the aisles with stink face will fix everything!!!!!

As for some of you who claim any time someone agrees with the way things are as "drinking the koolaid," you need to grow up. For the first time since I started working at AUO in Pittsburgh, I can take pride in what I do for students and know that I... — read more 

It's June 1st, four weeks to the start of the new fiscal year. Enrollment is down still, we announced the closing of 15 Ai's. BMC in next to start closing doors followed by some AU's. Even though people are leaving at a fast pace we don't have the... — read more 

What the f*** is going on. Management seems to be highly stressed. Directors seem pissed. Gavlik walks around ALL day and watches. Worst environment I have ever worked in. Damn. Any insight?

Robert DeNiro recently told NYU film school grads that they were fu**ed. So why would people continue to sign up for the Art Institutes?.................. https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/college-choice-rational-dahn-shaulis

Hey you know how you were successful at your job? Well stop that. Time to bore the shit out of potential students and have them be exhausted by the time you suggest they apply. Why this change? How will it impact new students? What are the hard... — read more 

Pull the rug out from under them and stop supporting this smoke and mirrors scam! You hold the power. It's in your hands!

Just took a quick look at EDMC website, the section "EDMC in the News"/ Press Release.... nothing has been updated since Oct of 2013. (17 months) I guess they can't find anything worthy to promote or there not enough people there to update the list.

The highly coveted, yet to be filled 2nd NP team at SUO PGH will finally have its leader named. AR's who inquired are now being given confirmation of their role. Shockingly an AM from a different campus will be joining the office banger and his... — read more 

What happened to the rumor of Brown Mackie closings?

Elevator's broke. Waddle your fat ass down the steps for your 15 smoke breaks.

Squeezing every dollar they can from anyone. http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/education-management-corporation-schools-pledge-support-for-students-and-employees-in-the-national-guard

Option A: Hold out for severance Option B: Jump ship Option C: Ride the sinking ship and collect your paycheck.

Overheard my manager today talking about how well AUO is doing. That it's doing way better than AIO and SUO. I am not surprised. Great AR's, great managers, best CD's and an amazing GVP.

The time is getting near. Looks like a certain CD that can't keep his willy away from his AR's may be FINALLY going down. I'm not in the building anymore but my very reliable source confirms that someone from corporate HR was in the bldng yesterday... — read more

Only 6 short weeks until July 1. This is when the BIG BOOM will happen. It's going to be biggest layoff yet. Kool-Aid drinkers, keep thinking everything is okay. 7/1 is right around the corner. Buckle up and hunker down now.

Gainful employment regulations begin July 1st. You think more than half the programs will be out on probation right off the bat? How long until FA will not give loans to students in certain programs?

How can anyone ignore the many lawsuits and accusations? I'm a former employee and I know that what's being leveled at EDMC is largely true. No accountability from their accrediting bodies and a culture of greed and of corporate management not... — read more

With all of the focus on AI, where does Argosy stand? Staff is a revolving door, "quality" appears shot...what is the next step for them?

CK, do you think EDMC will fall by the wayside like CCI?

Do we have a projected list like the Ai list that was floated around last month? If people know the numbers of students at each location please post.

Anyone catch wind of a faculty Walkout on June 22nd?

Hi everyone- I'm a former employee. I resigned a year and a half ago after several years at EDMC locations. Like you, I believed that I was a part of a good school system. Later , I realized that althought we offered some very good programs, our cost... — read more 

Scott please do BMC a favor and exit the organization. Your leadership is horrible, your policies are failing, you have no clue what to do and your military recruiting tatics belong in the military not in education.

Did anyone forget about this goal...where are we now Mr. West? Care to gues

Our campus is virtually shut down right now due to serious computer issues. Of course Corporate is silent. Are any other campuses experiencing similar disturbances. I know there are almost always problems (we are talking EDMC here) but the number and... — read more
