school or college, but the whole course of training, moral, intellectual, and

moral, or physical powers and faculties,"but In its broadest aud best sense
it relates to them all. Mount Herman Boys' School v. Gill, 145 Mass. 139, 13

DOE 16. U.S. Department of Education. “Education Department Proposes New Regulations to Protect Students and
Taxpayers from Predatory Institutions.” https://www.ed.gov/news/press-releases/education-department-proposes-
new-regulations-protect-students-and-taxpayers-predatory-institutions.

The Department of Education today proposed regulations to further


protect student borrowers and taxpayers against predatory practices by
postsecondary institutions. The regulations clarify, simplify, and
strengthen existing regulations that grant students loan forgiveness if they
were defrauded or deceived by an institution. The proposed regulations
would also hold financially risky institutions accountable for their
behavior and ban schools’ use of legal clauses to sidestep accountability.
This new regulatory effort builds on the Obama Administration's
commitment to protect taxpayers' and students' investments and ensure
that all Direct Loan borrowers can engage in a process that is efficient,
transparent and fair when applying for a loan discharge based on the
misconduct of the institution.
“We won’t sit idly by while dodgy schools leave students with piles of
debt and taxpayers holding the bag,” said U.S. Secretary of Education John
B. King Jr. “All students who are defrauded deserve an efficient,
transparent, and fair path to the relief they are owed, and the schools
should be held responsible for their actions.”
The proposed regulations would streamline relief for student borrowers
who have been wronged and create a process for group-wide loan
discharges when whole groups of students have been subject to the
misconduct. They also establish triggers that would require institutions
to put up funds if they engage in misconduct or exhibit signs of
financial risk.
Additionally, the proposed regulations require financially risky schools
and proprietary schools in which students have poor loan outcomes to
provide clear, plain-language warnings to prospective and current
students, and the public. The rules also make it simpler for eligible
students to receive closed-school discharge.
Finally, in a major step to protect student borrowers and prevent schools
from shirking responsibility for the injury they cause, the proposed
regulations would prohibit the use of so-called mandatory pre-dispute
arbitration clauses and class action waivers that deny students their day
in court if they are wronged. Under these regulations, schools would no
longer be able to use their enrollment agreements, or other pre-dispute
arbitration agreements or clauses in other documents, in order to force
students to go it alone by signing away their right to pursue relief as a
group, or to impose gag rules that silence students from speaking out.
