    Reagan National University (Reagan, really? Must be another Republican'ts invention.)

    This college was accredited by a DeVos-sanctioned group. We couldn’t find evidence of students or faculty.

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...ls/4746906002/

    Reagan National University was supposed to be a place of higher learning, but it was unclear how it awarded degrees. By all appearances, at present, it has no students, no faculty and no classrooms.

    An agency meant to serve as a gatekeeper for federal money gave the university approval to operate anyway.


    This screenshot from last month shows what used to be the homepage for Reagan National University, which listed its address in Sioux Falls, S.D. The web page prominently features the university's accreditation by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges & Schools. The site was taken down in the days before USA TODAY published this investigation.(Photo: RNU.EDU)

    Betsy DeVos orders probe after USA TODAY finds college evidently without faculty, students

    https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/...sd/4891749002/

    The U.S. Department of Education launched an investigation after a USA TODAY report showed an accredited college apparently had no faculty or students.

    Reagan National University, the college investigated by USA TODAY, was approved by the Accrediting Council for Independent Colleges & Schools. It has a history of approving several for-profit universities that suddenly closed, such as ITT Tech and Corinthian Colleges in the mid-2010s. The accreditor still operates mainly because it was saved by the Education Department in 2018 under Secretary Betsy DeVos.

    Thursday, DeVos told a congressional committee she was "troubled" by USA TODAY's report and she launched an investigation as a result.


    "I was not happy to read that," DeVos said of the USA TODAY story. "We have an investigation launched, and we're on it."

    Parent demands partial tuition, room and board refunds in class-action lawsuit
    https://www.gwhatchet.com/2020/05/04/parent-demands-partial-tuition-room-and-board-refund-in-class-action-lawsuit/

    A parent is suing the University for a refund of tuition, fees and room and board payments for the spring semester in light of the switch to online classes.

    In a 22-page class-action complaint filed in the D.C. District Court Friday, Mark Shaffer – a parent of a female student – alleges the University breached its contract with students by not providing in-person education and campus facilities during the instructional continuity period. Shaffer is demanding the University provide a partial refund to his daughter and all other students who paid for “tuition, fees and/or room and board” in the spring semester.

    “Despite sending students home and closing its campuses, Defendant continues to charge for tuition and fees as if nothing has changed, continuing to reap the financial benefit of millions of dollars from students,” the complaint states.


    The plaintiff’s daughter has noticed a dropoff in “academic rigor” since the virtual learning period began, according to the lawsuit.

    The lawsuit states that the cancelation of student organization activities and suspension of access to “vital” library tools only available on campus have added to the University’s failure to provide services that students should expect to receive.


    The complaint states that the switch to online courses has led to “back loading of work” and delayed deadlines, increasing difficulty for students trying to communicate with faculty and staff.


    “While Plaintiff paid GW for an in-class experience that would enable his daughter to communicate directly with her professors, attend office hours and work through issues in person, such experiences are non-existent following Defendant’s campus closure,” the complaint states.


    The lawsuit alleges the University collected tuition payments from students and families despite understanding the payments were involuntary, “unjust and inequitable.”


    Nosal said officials have applied credit to students’ accounts for housing costs from March 20 to the end of the semester, which students can have refunded or apply for future housing. She added that students can request reimbursements for dining plan funds and parking permits for the number of days the virtual learning period lasts.


    She said officials have reimbursed students for international program fees and the cost of international travel.


    More than 2,000 students have signed an online petition posted in March demanding officials refund half of students’ tuition for online classes.


    The complaint comes amid a wave of student lawsuits
    filed against universities nationwide demanding spring semester refunds because of the pandemic’s effect on holding classes.

    As the Virus Deepens Financial Trouble, Colleges Turn to Layoffs
    https://news.yahoo.com/virus-deepens...153450180.html

    This month, the University of Texas at San Antonio laid off 69 instructors, while the University of Michigan, Flint, last month eliminated more than 40% of the 300 lecturers who handle a majority of the teaching load on campus. Since May, Ohio University has had three rounds of layoffs, including more than 50 nonunionized faculty members.

    Lucrative college sports have dwindled as a revenue stream as games have been canceled, and colleges have lost money they usually make from dining halls, campus bookstores and room-and-board payments, which were refunded by many schools in the spring. Many students have also demanded tuition rebates, as face time with professors and the experience of campus life have been replaced by remote instruction from home.
