Summary, etc. |
"Proprietary schools have been an American fixture since the seventeenth century, when they taught illiterate adults in New Amsterdam to read, write, and do arithmetic. But until quite recently almost all of these schools were small, independently run operations....The best among them taught a useful skill like cosmetology or auto mechanics. The worst have been diploma mills--phantom operations whose degrees are literally not worth the paper on which they are photocopied....A new breed of for-profit schools has been emerging from the shadows, less marginal and less disdained than its predecessors. Unlike the conventional proprietary schools, these are multi-campus operations that offer online as well as traditional classroom instruction. While some give short courses...for the most part they enroll students in degree programs, from the associate degree to the Ph.D. level." (PUBLIC INTEREST) This article examines the past and present roles of for-profit schools in American education. |
