A college closure news usually followed by sad stories of the students who get caught in the middle.  This also applied to Virginia College students in Pensacola, FL who found out that the institution has abruptly close its door.  The accrediting agency (ACICS) withdrew its accreditation, which was cited as the main reason of its closure.  Perhaps, it is not a coincidence that the same accrediting agency regained its federal recognition recently from the DOE as reported in the following article.  The public hopes that this latest action has not been designed to gain short-run public trust on the agency which has suffered a major blow a couple of years ago.  American public eager to see a consistent action.

Perhaps, the American public may need to ask themselves on their decision to attend  for-profit organizations who run a higher ed.  If the public does not have the confidence,  then do not take the bait, or enroll, or buy the promises.
