The Biden administration is disadvantaging working-class students by targeting for-profit trade schools, according to a conservative watchdog group.
called on the administration to use executive power to"curb predatory behaviors" among for-profit colleges. They also said the Education Department should warn students who apply to"low-value" colleges — schools that leave them with high debt and low earning potential. The administration has created but not yet published a list of schools it deems as bad value in a bid to shame them to do better.
However, traditional colleges often leave students in a similar situation. In a 2020 Wall Street Journal column, economist Richard Vedder and policy analyst Andrew Gillen highlighted several prestigious public and nonprofit colleges that fail the gainful employment test, such as Columbia University's bachelor's program in rhetoric and composition and a master's degree in fine and studio arts at Yale. The column even flagged law and optometry degrees from distinguished universities.
The AAF also notes in its report that parents, full-time workers, minorities, veterans, and first-generation college studentsin higher proportions than traditional college students from middle- or upper-class homes. Trace Urdan, managing director at the investment firm Tyton Partners, was similarly critical of the Education Department's enforcement efforts.
