But there's another one that doesn't get as much attention. Western Governors University that our former governor and current President of Purdue University (the real one), Mitch Daniels, hawked at the end of his term as governor of Indiana. You pay a flat rate and "complete as many courses as you can." The real wonder of this scam is that none of the Western Governor University's "campuses" have any faculty at all. That's right. A "university" with no faculty. It's literally a pay wall for online content that is "fully accredited." In fairness, they do have "mentors" whom, I understand, help you to understand any online content that you find confusing. But the fact remains there is no faculty associated with that "university." I haven't seen the teevee ads featuring Mitch Daniels hawking this "university" since he became President of Purdue University (a blot on my CV as my terminal degree is from that school), but it says *a lot* about the Board of Directors of my alma mater that they would hire such a con artist.

And all of this says nothing about the unconscionable amount of federal loans awarded to the marks "students" at these sorts of "universities." It will be interesting to see if there's anything left of our educational system after that scumbag DeVos finishes with it.
