I see it mentions the University of Phoenix.  There's a private university 
company here called BPP -- about which I know nothing -- that's owned by the 
people who own Phoenix.  

There was a wonderful kerfuffle here earlier this year when AC Grayling 
announced he was setting up a new private university with lectures by, among 
others, Dawkins, Pinker, and (Niall) Ferguson. 

Here's its web page

An interesting story from Frontline on for profit universities.
