They allow misleading data. For example: average graduate salary $150K. They do not provide link showing that this includes only graduates who report salaries (so the formula is total of reported graduate salary / total number of graduates reporting a salary rather than total of reported salaries / total graduates. There is substantial evidence that worse outcomes are less reported, plus the school actively tracks grads with high salaries, while it ignores those without). Another example: employing students in "school funded" jobs for 9 months (when they report employment numbers), then ending the employment.
