This would be a fatal mistake. For-Profit is one thing… but for-profit that is publicly traded will take it to a less desirable level.

This can only be good. NAU is a poorly ran organization. Try to teach a paralegal class with just one computer on campus having access to legal research software.

Major organizational structure issues and a lack of resources to serve students.

Good deal all around.
