New allegations of racist practices at for profit colleges emerge
Business, Education, MediaApr 11, 2012On Wednesday April 11 2012 Courthouse news reported Joseph Simpson, a former dean at for profit school Anthem Career College, filed a lawsuit in Federal Court alleging Anthem fired him for protesting racist hiring practices and the cheating of workers out of overtime pay.
According to Courthouse news the complaint stated “Ms. Nash [the school president] was only offering full time employment opportunities to white candidates and not to African-American candidates. Ms. Nash also repeatedly blocked plaintiff’s attempts to hire a fully qualified African-American registrar while pushing forward white candidates who were less qualified.”http://www.courthousenews.com/2012/04/11/45510.htm
The complaint is remarkably similar to a lawsuit filed against Kaplan University
