I guess anyone selling anything would be someone preying on another person. For 28k net personally would not have put my money into school.
A Realtor tried to really sell me a crap house once for an outrageous price. I said no. A car salesman tried to sell an over priced car. I said no. I went to a pyramid scam meeting. They wanted $1500 I said no.
It's not up to the sales person/predator to say no it falls on the person to say yes or no. I'm also a strong believe in self responsibility and reading what you sign. The students were lazy, didn't read, and didn't price shop. Not the sales persons/predators fault.
Same with over leveraged mortgages from 2005-2012. Not the salesman/predators fault because the borrower said yes.
You are 100% responsible for yourself and your actions including borrowing $28k for an associates degree.
