Colleges keep closing. Are regulators doing enough to warn students?<\/strong><\/a> — from usatoday.com by Zachary Schermele
\nThe Biden administration has aggressively tackled college oversight. But universities are still closing without warning, leaving students and faculty in the lurch.<\/em><\/p>\n

That task is challenging, regardless of who\u2019s in the White House because the federal government\u2019s metrics for identifying at-risk private colleges have long been flawed. The most recent flutter of high-profile closures underscores how necessary federal intervention may be to protect the lives of students and faculty from getting derailed in the coming years. Tragic stories from students like Hebert are bringing new urgency to efforts to improve the government\u2019s warning signs that a campus is flailing.<\/p>\n
