The Colorado Attorney General (“AG”) has been attacking CollegeAmerica for more than five years and has done untold damage to the college, its staff, instructors, and students.*
This attack is led by Assistant Attorney General Libby Webster (formerly DeBlasio). She was part of the team developing the rules that, as the Wall Street Journal recently wrote, “were aimed at destroying for-profit colleges.”
Webster and her team of as many as fifteen high-paid lawyers and paralegals have spent millions of taxpayer dollars on the assault, which is not merely a waste of time and money, but the misuse of taxpayers’ money to destroy a private, free-market college.
The Assistant AG’s absurd claims against CollegeAmerica include the following:
“Tuition at CollegeAmerica is too high.” This claim is bizarre. When everything is included—length of program, tuition, opportunity costs, and living expenses—CollegeAmerica is much less expensive than Colorado community colleges. In addition, community colleges get massive taxpayer subsidies. Yet Webster is not huffing and puffing to blow those schools down.
