Ed Dept brokered 90/10 rule changes

Purdue, UMass, and U of A aren't partners. They bought the school. I'm not even sure why UMass bought an online school since the UMass system already has numerous online programs. That one makes no sense to me.

They bought the respective schools (in the case of Purdue, for $1) but with a long-term (15-30 year, if I remember correctly) agreement with one of the for-profit entities to do all of the marketing and other services in exchange for a large % of the tuition.  There was a well-researched article about this, and the greater trend; I'll see if I can track it down and post it.

Brandman itself may be nonprofit, but the same arrangement with the for-profit educational services company applies. If it was already nonprofit, it is curious why the affiliation change.

Edit: I could not quickly find the podcast that delved into the details in depth, but did find these articles which describe the structure and the problems with it:
