I guess nobody read the entire article and just what was posted here.

Their true intent could not be clearer," Assistant U.S. Attorney Brandon Helms wrote in a sentencing memo this month for Rampeesa, one of the eight recruiters, of the hundreds of students enrolled. "While 'enrolled' at the University, one hundred percent of the foreign citizen students never spent a single second in a classroom. If it were truly about obtaining an education, the University would not have been able to attract anyone, because it had no teachers, classes, or educational services."


The UK just went through a similar purge.

Basically the recruiters collect a free from the potential students who know full well in advance that they will never attend any classes but under the student visa they receive permission to legally work in the United States while attend school.

The recruiters then give kick backs to the school administrators and teachers in order to log the students in as if they were attending class when they actually never step foot in a classroom.

So they were abusing the student visa work program and useing it to gain permission to work in the US.

The right people were jailed and or removed from the country.

The bird-dog recruiters collecting the fees.

The students who paid the fees knowing full well they were not going to be actually attending school.

The difference in this case verses the case in the UK it was not necessary to arrest school officials or teachers for taking bribes in order to sign off that the students were attending school when they were not.

Because they were government employees.

The government could have gone after an accredited school where this is happening and shut the school down.

But then what would have happened to the students,both US born and foreign born that were following the law?

They would have lost thier school and the foreign students would have lost thier scholarships and right to work.

So by the government setting this up they stopped the innocent from being harmed and only caught the ones knowingly committing crimes.

A foreign student applying for a student visa does not need a bird-dog to handle things for them,they can apply on thier own.

The only reason they need a bird-dog is because they have the connections to pay off the administration to say you are attending classes when you are not.

The only reason they are paying a bird-dog is to obtain permission to legally work in the United States and useing the student visa as a back door.
