Government made major revisions to for-profit colleges report, didn't tell public | Washington Examiner

Recent revisions to a Government Accountability Office report on for-profit colleges have raised questions about the GAO’s objectivity and credibility. Now, a bipartisan group of six members of Congress has asked that those questions be answered.

The GAO report of Aug. 4 was prepared for the Senate Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee at the request of Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa). It criticized the recruiting practices of for-profit colleges and universities based on the evidence of 28 key investigative “scenarios.” The revisions, released Nov. 30, made factual changes to 16 of the 28."
