DeVos: DOE to investigate if federal regs were broken in college admissions scandal
Education Secretary Betsy DeVos said Thursday that her department will investigate whether any of its regulations were violated by school officials or others involved in the massive college admissions scam uncovered by the Justice Department this week.
DeVos told CNN that conduct of those arrested by federal investigators this week was "disgraceful," while vowing to hold those involved accountable.
"Every student deserves to be considered on their individual merits when applying to college, and it's disgraceful to see anyone breaking the law to give their children an advantage over others," she told the news network. "The department is looking closely at this issue and working to determine if any of our regulations have been violated."
It wasn't clear exactly which regulations if any in particular DeVos suspects could have been breached. The Department of Justice (DOJ) announced charges against more than 40 people on Tuesday over a scam that in which wealthy parents, among other allegations, cheated on college entrance exams.
