Well said James. I agree, for all his efforts to torpedo small, proprietary schools that are legal and valid, he has failed. HR departments throughout the nation recognize many,(if not all), the schools he has tried to pole-axe, most are still standing, and quite a few are now accredited... so the last laugh is not on Bear/Klempner , as usual....
Sadly, he has done some "less than wonderful things", along the way.... least of which is crank calling men's wives and people's places of employment, to caste "some" individuals in a bad light, or just "freak" them out. This deviant behavior borders on the antisocial, and is usually the work of a miscreant. The more intriguing question is why has he flipped on the very schools he used to champion? He doesn't get rich by pumping up the crummy RA schools, so the answer must be something else. I believe he has turned on these proprietary schools because he is just mean-spirited and vengeful. Many of the schools he rags on, have done very, very well financially. In fact, many of these institutions have not only made a great deal of money, but they have provided sound education and academic credentials to students who have improved themselves and the world around them and Bear/Klempner doesn't approve of it. When citizens become "branded" for being a "criminal", because they attended a non-RA school, that is a shock to most peoples sensibilities. Unfortunately, Bear and his buddies have been at the forefront of perpetuating this precept. By insisting that society at large should subscribe to this false precept, it places people under a "cloud of suspicion", a cloud they should never be under in the first place! Seems like a fairly crude assessment, but when you analyze the situation, what else is there?
