So they are getting hit with cost of business. 100k students with 78% being affected, 50k tuition that is actually 25% more than advertised.
(78,000 students)(50,000 tution)(.25) = 975million they made just from extra fees tricking those students. A 38 million fine should be on top of the 975million they pay back for conning people. Why would they stop when they make money off of this?
Could we just get a GitHub repo started and slowly whittle away the contradictions and redundancies, with the express goal of just getting into the heaven. Has a sect already done this?
No surprise whatsoever. They ramped up their spending on ads probably 100x about 10 years ago. They bought a basketball star for a coach, sold naming rights to their sports complex—newly built and upgraded—and leveraged that into widespread billboards and commercials.
Aside: I taught in Phoenix at the time and every graduate from GCU in my subject area without fail was ill-prepared yet supremely confident—a bad combination. It would seem, now that they’re nationwide online, a la University of Phoenix, they’ve become a diploma mill. They also really push the “christian university” angle hard to get into the pockets of those rubes.
