We all know why the media is ignoring this, right?

Why Isn’t The Press Covering Clinton For-Profit University Scheme?

Corruption: No doubt you’ve heard all about Donald Trump and the defunct Trump University. The big media have been all over that “scandal.” But what about Bill Clinton, Hillary’s husband, and the Laureate International Universities? There’s been a virtual blackout in the mainstream press.

We won’t bore you with the Trump flap because chances are you’ve seen countless news clips on it or read pieces in your local paper about it. Serious questions were raised about the propriety of Trump University, an online real estate school. Fair enough.

But what about Laureate International Universities? Haven’t heard of those?

President Clinton in his retirement years affiliated himself with the Laureate Network, described as the “world’s largest for-profit university network.” It has a lot of big-money investors, mostly Democratic Party supporters: Henry Kravis, George Soros, Steve Cohen and Paul Allen.

But serious allegations have been raised over just how legitimate the “universities” affiliated with the Laureate Network are.

As George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley wrote recently: “Laureate Education has been sued over such programs as its Walden University Online offering, which many have alleged is a scam designed to bilk students of tens of thousands of dollars for degrees.”

He added: “Students say that they were repeatedly delayed and given added costs as they tried to secure degrees, leaving them deeply in debt.”

Does that sound like a legitimate organization? It reeks of a bait-and-switch academic scheme to us, playing off the desperation of young people who are seeking academic credentials.

Now here’s the kicker: Former President Bill Clinton is the “honorary” chancellor of Laureate International, the parent of Walden and other online schools of its ilk.
