Some of the idiots that post on this site just love to spew opinion. They have very little knowledge of the facts surrounding the subject matter.
The closing of Heald College was in fact that main priority of AG Kamala Harris. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau relied specifically on the California AG's data, that is flawed and unsubstantiated, when pressuring the Secretary and Under-Secretary of Education to act swiftly against Heald College, This lead directly to a massive $30 million fine levied in order to crush the negotiations between Corinthian and three potential buyers for Heald. Never before has there been fines levied by the Department of Education on a college without first warning of violations, and then a period of time to correct said violations before imposing the fine.
It should be noted that the U.S. Department of Education recently approved the sale of 53 other Corinthian Schools outside of California to a non-profit company called ECMC. This company was willing to buy Heald Colleges and the remaining Corinthian schools from California, in the same deal that the DOE approved but was forced to exclude these schools due to the overly burdensome demands by Kamala Harris' office. It should also be noted that one only needs to go to www.kamalaharris.org/ and read the list of donors and campaign supporters to find the name of Senator Elizabeth Warren who has been the mouthpiece for crushing career colleges. A supporter in the Senate that Ms. Harris desperately does not want to lose. She has done the same thing to the Daughters of Charity Health System just a few weeks back in order to cozy up to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). The SEIU is another powerful supporter that she would love to have in her pocket come time for her Senate bid. The same method of operation was implemented, add unreasonable demands to any future buyer to kill the deal and make the SEIU happy. Feel free to read about it in the Wall Street Journal by searching for “When Unions Trump Hospitals.”
