1. Every time I see this commercial on tv, I get a little tear in the corner of my eye

2. Good commercial. Too bad it's for the University of Phoenix. n/t

5. That's my take as well.

Clearly they have the money to spend on high-quality commercials, though.

7. yep

6. U of P is a ripoff

It is a for-profit "college." It has no real professors, all are adjuncts. Its decisions on textbooks is not based on the merits of the book or made by faculty. The decisions are made by managers, apparently based on financial kickbacks.

Too bad such a horrible institution hired a good ad agency.

8. Great Commercial, lousy educational investment.

I wish they would concentrate on giving their students a meaningful education instead of good advertising.

3. A for-profit institution that's little more than a loan mill has to keep up appearances, I guess.

4. Exactly. That place is corrupt as hell.

I used to work for a whistle-blowing company - took reports from people with complaints about all sorts of things.

I cannot even count how many I took about University of Phoenix.
