Episode 12: For-Profit Colleges on Edge

The U.S. Education Department's new round of rule making, announced last week, has some for-profit colleges worrying that they are about to face stricter oversight from the Obama administration. Kelly Field and Sara Hebel discuss whether the institutions have reason to fret.

Kelly Field, The Chronicle's chief Washington reporter, and Sara Hebel, our politics editor, spend a minute (or so) each week discussing the key higher-education debates and behind-the-scenes maneuvering taking place in the nation's capital. Look for new episodes every Tuesday.
