You realize this is precisely the mandate of BPPE, the agency in question, right? They're a consumer fraud agency, part of the California Department of Consumer Affairs, and their rules include such nefarious things as...
"The institution shall employ administrative personnel who have the expertise to ensure the achievement of the institution's mission and objectives and the operation of the educational programs."
"An institution shall not promise or guarantee employment, or otherwise overstate the availability of jobs upon graduation."
You can read them for yourself: http://www.bppe.ca.gov/enforcement/institution_minreq.shtml http://www.bppe.ca.gov/enforcement/institution_minreq.shtml

- gojomo 13y agoI had a long reply to your deleted comment. In its absence I'll note that another cost of the BPPE's discretionary regulatory power here is a chilling of speech by knowledgeable operators, who now can't risk angering the regulators or sharing information that could increase later compliance burdens.
