Why Should Blog Posts Concerning Michael Dakduk, SVA and APSCU Matter to Me?

Today I was asked by a military supporter "why should I read your blogs concerning Michael Dakduk, Student Veterans of America and the Association for Private Sector College and Universities (APSCU)?” This is a very fair question and my reply is as follows:

• For historical context which might help explain why Dakduk chose to join APSCU 
• For historical context which might help explain SVA's relatively soft stance on predatory institutions in comparison to veterans organizations like IAVA
• For historical context that encourages critical dialogue regarding the ability of the for-profit education sector to self-regulate
• For historical context that encourages critical dialogue regarding the need for increased regulation of for-profit higher education sector as opposed to providing adequate resources to enforce existing consumer protection policies 
• For historical context which might help explain the VA and State Approving Agencies apparent lack of enforcement of veteran consumer protection laws
• For historical context that might explain the various actions and political positions taken by SVA, APSCU and Dakduk
• For historical context that encourages critical dialogue regarding how to prevent the premature demise of the Post 9/11 GI Bill
