The entire episode of John Oliver is worth watching. In his own words, a former University of Phoenix Director talks about the business model at University of Phoenix. That part starts at 6:06.....http://www.slate.com/blogs/browbeat/2014/09/08/john_oliver_student_debt_segments_goes_after_for_profit_colleges_video.html

University of Phoenix sent recruiters to Wounded Warriors events too.
I think I heard something about that...that is sickening. UOP should not only be shut down, they should be forced to return the funds they are stealing. You know all the pell grabbing students are buying is XBOX and WEED.
Five years ago there was a bull dyke director of enrollment who actually called a meeting and brought Kool-Aid and told all EAs to reach in, grab one, and drink up.ALL of management across this faux university know nothing about liberal inquiry and learning, but they do know call center, boiler room practices. I remember laughing at the stupidity of this spectacle and couldn't help but wish Jim Jones had laced the Kool-Aid with a quick poison to death for the lemmings who had wilfully participated.
UOP is actually a great school, for Pell Checks! LOL
Let's get to work! Haha, lol, red socks, epic points, career progression. Vomit.
the parole office in San Diego and would then try and enroll these parolees. Nothing like wasting the taxpayer's money.
That video was hilarious! sent it to a few former EA's as well as current. LOL change those lives!!!
i hope we see this crap hole close down very soon, it sickens me
It is right on target--pee your panties screaming hilarious. For profits schools are just a waste of time and money.
You days working for the whore are numbered. 800+ jobs are going to be slashed in the third week in October. If you are working at a campus or in any other department than sales(enrollment), you and your friends are going to be buggered. I do hope all of you like a good old fashioned anal pfisting.
its over and the scramble is on to find an out with no clue where to turn except cost cutting and layoffs. while they were drinking their own 5 year plan koolaid they really believed they were a profitable company despite the falling enrollment numbers. now they will execute the messiest rif of all time even though a rif is something they know how to do it will be a huge cluster f&*k and even after they cut the ranks they will still expect the same work to get done. looking forward to negative earnings call.
Camden...you've been gone awhile. Keep up the good work, I support what you are dong here.
Trust me, as a former employee The University of Phoenix is a terrible place to work, I can't believe they haven't shut this scam of a school down.
Quote from the clip: Asford University was sending recruiters to the wounded warriors barracks
I have a conscience and I find the University of Phoenix to be abhorrent in principle and practice. I'm not alone, either.
Anyone with a conscience should find these diploma mills abhorrent in principle and practice.
