Education Management Says Federal Lawsuit Is Baseless

October 5, 2011, 8:13 pm

The Education Management Corporation asked a federal judge on Wednesday to dismiss a “whistle-blower” lawsuit against it that centers on the legality of how the for-profit college company compensated its student recruiters. The company argues that the suit, filed by two former employees in U.S. District Court in Pittsburgh and later joined by the U.S. Department of Justice and several states, “does not and cannot present any facts showing a companywide sham to defraud the government,” according to the Bloomberg news service and court documents.

To EMC, why are you joking at a time as critical as this? Trying to be funny by stating the suit is baseless? How stupid of you, everyone on the planet knows that EMC is one of the for-profits leading fraudsters. Now you will have to spend a good deal of your scammed income to delay the legal process and keep you thiefs out of jail. Why don’t you do the honorable thing for once; admit your guilt, use your fraudulently received money to make as many of your scammed students as whole as possible, and throw yourself upon the mercy of the court. You would exit the process with some small level of respect.

Mr Nilly, do you never tire of repeating yourself? I don’t know much about EMC, but arriving at conclusions based on a couple of whistle blowers is a little weak.

Now, wipe your chin. A little venom is still dripping…

Mr. Kelly, just stop reading my posts if they upset you. I am going to continue to beat this drum long and hard so as to inform and protect as many potential students as possible. I have seen far too many innocent, unsuspecting and mislead people scammed out of their limited financial resourses by these fraudulent for-profit educational imposters. The sooner it stops the entire educational enterprise will be enhanced.

And No, Mr. Kelly, I am not going to insult you or say something stupid to you as you did to me in your second paragraph. I am actually sorry that you are in a position where you feel some pressure to support such unscrupulous people as those who run these flim-flam schools.
