Chesapeake barber school received millions to teach veterans. Instead, the director was defrauding
By Margaret Matray
Students at William Grobes IV’s barber school had a motto: “We’re here to earn, not to learn.”
From October 2011 through September this year, the College of Beauty and Barber Culture in Chesapeake collected $4.5 million from the Department of Veterans Affairs under the Post-9/11 GI Bill.
Veteran students enrolled there collected $10.5 million more – for housing allowances, books and supplies.
But the school was defrauding the VA, federal prosecutors say.
Veterans “rarely, if ever,” received the required hours of instruction, according to court documents. They didn’t take graded tests or complete projects. Some didn’t even have a textbook.
