That will not change how some individuals and employers see for-profit schools.

From what I recall of Strayer, wasn't it a trade school (from back in the day where you could go to school to learn a business-related trade) that simply expanded into the online market? I'd imagine that the people who know would be okay with Strayer alumni, where UOPX has a well-deserved bad rap.
I think that's a far cry from someplace like UOPX which always catered to the at-home-during-the-day correspondence courses and took advantage of that market.
