AACTE Head On For-Profit College Board

Sharon P. Robinson, the president and chief executive officer of the non-profit American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE) has served, since January 2011, on the board of directors of Corinthian Colleges, a publicly-traded corporation that runs the for-profit colleges Everest, Heald, and WyoTech. While Robinson’s organization advocates for strong professional teacher education, Corinthian has a record of poor quality education programs, sold to students through deceptive recruiting, and the company is now under investigation by more than a dozen state attorneys general and at least four federal law enforcement agencies. - See more at: http://www.republicreport.org/2014/head-teachers-college-assn-serves-board-predatory-corinthian-colleges/#sthash.FPLqp79U.dpuf
