I see the people who are overwhelmingly taking classes at "Fake Universities" online and it worries me. They're not savvy enough to know the difference--they just see that they can get a degree while they're in their pajamas! You don't need an online MBA to do hair. They're taking out insane amounts of debt just for the privilege of saying that "they GOT their degree!"

I also think these schools know, demographically, who will fall for their nonsense.
