Random observation about online grad studies

Some non-profits, such as SNHU, have adopted the aggressive marketing practices of for-profits.

I am seeing the above right now. I cannot talk one of my friends out of an overpriced fake not-for-profit that has a MOU with the county employer and on-site at the employer. I'm sure the sales rep at the non-profit school did a really good job. Of course he failed the required intermediate algebra at the community college multiple times and believes it will be higher quality instruction through the overpriced fake not-for-profit rather than at the local state university. I'm sure the graduation rate will be important in whether or not the MOU is extended, so I suspect he will finally "pass" algebra 2 with a "generous" instructor at the overpriced on-site class.

Worse, he is one of the special snowflakes that could use an AA in business at the employer for a promotion, but he won't continue that at the community college. Most likely due to the intermediate algebra wall.
