Hillary and Bill Clinton Operated Their Own For Profit College just like Trump University that nobody wants to ask her about. ABC Sleaze won't ask and Hillary Clinton sure won't tell!
Donald Trump was trying to help people while Hillary and Bill Clinton were screwing their students to the wall, all over the world, using taxpayer money funneled through the State Department to another foundation to circle back to the Clinton foundation, after paying Bill Clinton millions of dollars.
The criminal enterprise, the Clinton Foundation, under RICO Gangster Mobster Investigation by the FBI and DOJ are hiding from the American Voters.
With her campaign sinking
in the polls like the Titanic, Bernie Sanders driving up her ass and Donald Trump laughing in her face the back stabbing Hillary Clinton has launched a desperate attack against Trump
University to deflect attention away from her deep involvement with a
controversial for-profit college that made the Clintons millions, even as the
school faced serious legal scrutiny and criminal investigations.
In
April 2015, Bill Clinton was forced to abruptly resign from his lucrative perch
as honorary chancellor of Laureate Education, a for-profit college company. Last year the cops were catching up with the Clinton's running a college for cash scheme all over the world that was funded by the U.S. taxpayers, via the Clinton State Department, right under the nose of radical Negro Barack Obama.
The
reason for Clinton’s immediate departure: Clinton Cash revealed,
and Bloomberg confirmed, that Laureate funneled Bill Clinton $16.46 million over five years while Hillary Clinton’s State Dept. pumped at least $55 million to a group run by Laureate’s founder and chairman, Douglas Becker, a man with strong ties to the Clinton Global Initiative.
With $4 billion in annual revenue, Laureate Education is America’s largest for-profit college company. From 2010 until just days before the 2015 release of Clinton Cash, Bill Clinton served as Laureate’s “honorary chancellor.” When the Clinton campaign team obtained a copy of the book and its Clinton-Laureate connection revelation, Bill Clinton abruptly resigned.
Laureate’s chairman and longtime Clinton crony, Douglas Becker, is also the chairman of a nonprofit sister organization called the International Youth Foundation (IYF). Indeed, IYF’s offices are less than a mile from Laureate’s in Baltimore. Shortly after Laureate made Bill Clinton its honorary chancellor in April 2010, Hillary Clinton made Laureate part of her State Department Global Partnership. IYF received USAID funds before Hillary’s tenure at the State Dept. But the grants the group received exploded after Bill Clinton was put on the Laureate payroll.
According to a Bloomberg analysis of the Clinton Cash revelation: “In 2009, the year before Bill Clinton joined Laureate, the nonprofit received 11 grants worth $9 million from the State Department or the affiliated USAID. In 2010, the group received 14 grants worth $15.1 million. In 2011, 13 grants added up to $14.6 million. The following year, those numbers jumped: IYF received 21 grants worth $25.5 million, including a direct grant from the State Department.”
As the leader of the embattled for-profit college industry, Laureate has come under fire and been investigated for its practices in monetizing education, reports the Washington Post.
Inside
a building on a narrow Rio de Janeiro street, nine telemarketers sit in small
cubicles, talking frenetically into headsets as scripts scroll across their
computer screens.
On
an October morning, these salespeople are urging high school seniors to attend
Centro Universitário IBMR, a for-profit university. Their supervisor, Rafael
Morine, strains to be heard above the clatter of an air conditioner.
“Remember,
today we are offering 30 percent discounts,” he tells a young woman.
Before
the day ends, he says, his team will make almost 1,300 calls. The call center
sits on the top floor of the nine-story building, above classrooms. Some
telemarketers are students at IBMR who take classes at night.
“They
know their school well,” says Morine, 28. “And that helps us sell.” Fliers
taped to the walls promise bonuses to salespeople who persuade at least 250
students to take the entrance exam for IBMR. One poster advertises the
university’s owner, located almost 5,000 miles away in Baltimore: “Be part of
Laureate Network, the biggest university network in the world.”
Internationally,
salespeople such as these have helped Laureate Education become a for-profit
higher-education juggernaut. Laureate, which was spawned from the tutoring
chain Sylvan Learning Systems in 2004, owns 75 schools in 30 countries.
It
has 800,000 students, up from 243,000 seven years ago, making it the largest
U.S. for-profit college company by enrollment. Since it went private in 2007,
Laureate’s annual revenue has more than tripled to $4 billion.
Though
Laureate isn’t well-known in the United States, it employs one of the country’s
most recognizable figures: former president Bill Clinton. In 2010, the company
hired Clinton to serve as its honorary chancellor. In this paid position,
Clinton has trekked to Laureate’s campuses in countries such as Malaysia, Peru
and Spain, making more than a dozen appearances on its behalf.
Laureate
is backed by several of the biggest names in finance, including Henry Kravis,
George Soros, Steve Cohen and Paul Allen.
When Laureate’s founder and chief
executive, Doug Becker, persuaded these investors’ firms to take his company
private in a deal worth $3.8 billion, Kravis’s firm, KKR, took a
$487.5 million stake.
By
2010, according to a KKR memo to investors, its investment had increased in
value to $710.8 million.
Laureate
has thrived by exporting many of the practices that for-profit colleges adopted
in the United States, such as offering career-oriented courses and spending
heavily on marketing. Such strategies helped build what was a booming industry
until 2010, when recruiting abuses and mounting student debt spurred a
regulatory crackdown by the Obama administration.
As
a result, the Bloomberg U.S. For-Profit Education Index has fallen
54 percent since its 2010 peak. Enrollment at Apollo Education Group’s University of
Phoenix has declined 44 percent to 269,000, according to regulatory
filings.
Laureate’s
supporters say the company performs an important service by expanding access to
education in emerging markets. In January 2013, the World Bank’s investment
arm, the International Finance Corp., invested $150 million in Laureate.
“Many
universities, after Laureate has invested, have been able to put their houses
in order, apply financial discipline and really grow,” says Atul Mehta, a
director at Washington-based IFC.
That
growth may come at a cost. While some of Laureate’s colleges rank high in
private surveys, including Universidad Andrés Bello in Santiago, Chile, and Les
Roches International School of Hotel Management in Bluche, Switzerland, others
have drawn criticism from teachers, students and government officials.
They
say Laureate boosts revenue at struggling colleges by turbocharging enrollment,
often without a parallel increase in academic investment. Since Laureate took
over IBMR in 2010, its quality ranking among small colleges in Brazil has
dropped to 132 from 41, according to the government’s National Institute of
Studies and Educational Research.
In
April, the Rio State Legislature’s Investigative Commission on Private
Universities issued a report criticizing for-profit colleges for firing
professors. It singled out Laureate’s takeover of IBMR.
Education
as ‘commodity’
“They
have turned education into a commodity that focuses more on profit than
knowledge,” says Robson Leite, the Rio state legislator who led the probe.
Still, Clinton proudly championed the group that paid him over $16 million and allowed his image to be plastered all over Laureate’s $200 million annual marketing materials, even as Hillary Clinton pumped tens of millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars to Laureate’s sister group.
and Bloomberg confirmed, that Laureate funneled Bill Clinton $16.46 million over five years while Hillary Clinton’s State Dept. pumped at least $55 million to a group run by Laureate’s founder and chairman, Douglas Becker, a man with strong ties to the Clinton Global Initiative.
Laureate has donated between $1 million and $5 million (donations
are reported in ranges, not exact amounts) to the Clinton Foundation.
Progressive billionaire George Soros is
also a Laureate financial backer.
As the Washington Post reports, “Laureate has stirred
controversy throughout Latin America, where it derives two-thirds of its
revenue.”
During Bill Clinton’s tenure as Laureate’s chancellor, the school
spent over $200 million a year on aggressive telemarketing, flashy Internet banner
ads, and billboards designed to lure often unprepared students from
impoverished countries to enroll in its for-profit classes.
The goal: get as
many students, regardless of skill level, signed up and paying tuition.
“I meet
people all the time who transfer here when they flunk out elsewhere,” agronomy
student Arturo Bisono, 25, told the Post. “This has become the
place you go when no one else will accept you.”
Others,
like Rio state legislator Robson Leite who led a probe into Bill Clinton’s
embattled for-profit education scheme, say the company is all about extracting
cash, not educating students. “They have turned education into a commodity that
focuses more on profit than knowledge,” said Leite.
Progressives
have long excoriated for-profit education companies for placing profits over
quality pedagogy. Still, for five years, Bill Clinton allowed his face and name
to be plastered all over Laureate’s marketing materials.
As Clinton
Cash reported, pictures of Bill Clinton even lined the walkways at
campuses like Laureate’s Bilgi University in Istanbul, Turkey. That Laureate
has campuses in Turkey is odd, given that for-profit colleges are illegal
there, as well as in Mexico and Chile where Laureate also operates.
Shortly
after Bill Clinton’s lucrative 2010 Laureate appointment, Hillary Clinton’s
State Dept. began pumping millions of its USAID dollars to a sister nonprofit,
International Youth Foundation (IYF), which is run by Laureate’s founder and
chairman, Douglas Becker. Indeed, State Dept. funding skyrocketed once Bill
Clinton got on the Laureate payroll, according to Bloomberg:
A Bloomberg examination
of IYF’s public filings show that in 2009, the year before Bill Clinton joined
Laureate, the nonprofit received 11 grants worth $9 million from the State
Department or the affiliated USAID. In 2010, the group received 14 grants worth
$15.1 million. In 2011, 13 grants added up to $14.6 million. The following
year, those numbers jumped: IYF received 21 grants worth $25.5 million,
including a direct grant from the State Department.
Throughout ten Democratic
Party debates, Establishment Media have not asked Hillary Clinton a single
question about she and her husband’s for-profit education scam.
