In College Inc., Frontline presents an informative, surprising, yet at times tedious documentary. The documentary provides the background in for-profit schools, while interweaving Michael Clifford’s motives towards reforming, and helping other for-profit schools maintain a sustainable income to succeed. College Inc. conveys information regarding their enrollment tactics, their unfulfilled promises of training, and the debt that accumulates with enrolling in these schools. Frontline successfully depicts the deceiving aspects about for-profit schools, and how their motives revolve around collecting the most money sufficiently. The personal experiences of people who were enrolled in for-profit schools are engaging, and allow the audience to understand

They interweave a handful of anecdotes, which beneficially allow the audience to interpret the pernicious outcomes that come with accumulating student debt. These prior students not only stress the magnitude of their accumulating debt, but they also highlight the difficulty that comes with finding a sufficient job that will accept the inadequate training. Frontline focuses on three nurses who went to Everest College for $30,000 for twelve months. Everest proposed empty promises by assuring them that after school, they would find job that would pay $20-35 per hour to each nurse. The nurses were in despair and chagrin when hospitals rejected the nurses because they did not stepping into a hospital for educational purposes.

The shocking lack of practical training is accentuated when the nurses went to a daycare to “fulfill” their pediatrics training. Several other alarming teaching tactics led to the conclusion that for-profit colleges are not fulfilling the promises they propose. These deceitful agreements are weighing people down with debt, which inevitably grows as they struggle to find a way to obtain a sufficient job with their dubious degree.

is a surprising documentary, which captures the fraudulent side of for-profit colleges with sufficient facts and personal experiences. Although it reveals several unknown facts and stories, it is repetitive at times to unnecessarily underscore information. My knowledge towards for-profit colleges has been enlarged, as it is shocking to learn that the industry of education from for-profit colleges has been abused and aspersed. In the future, Frontline should avoid reiterating too many gratuitous known facts that are commonly acknowledged, to refrain their audience from becoming distracted and mentally detached. I would recommend this documentary to my peers, so they can also learn the unanticipated tactics that for-profit colleges wrongfully employ. This would also let them learn from the documentary, and allow them to choose a logical school in the future based on what they have learned. Ultimately, Frontline crafts a mostly engaging documentary that is accompanied with an abundance of information that is wrongfully hidden by for-profit
