"curricula that are constantly retailored to meet company needs" it's always worth remembering that the firms discussed in the article are not really educational institutions as much as they are career training centers, providing a very specific skillset in order to meet very specific labor demands. in a traditional university, faculty call the shots on curriculum (or at least they should); that's not the case here. furthermore, these firms work both sides of the deal by acting as 3rd-party recruiting agents to the companies that ultimately are looking to hire. (i now have to ignore spam from hacker bootcamps trying to pitch me candidates). let's call a spade a spade -- these are businesses. i'm very concerned about allowing federal student loans into this cocktail.
