Many years ago, I taught data processing and computer applications at Heald Business College. The school had recently become a non-profit.
In 2009, Corinthian College took over and converted the chain into a for-profit. I think for-profit education is generally a bad idea. Corinthian shut down all of its schools without warning in 2015, leaving students with little recourse and owing, in many cases, large amounts of money. I was very sorry to see this happen.
Over the years Heald gave many people a good education in the shortest possible time. I missed a chance in 2013 to write about the school's 150th anniversary. I was there for the 125th.
