In most cases, for-profit education is a big enough scam to begin with. Add Donald Trump to the equation and have the "education" in question be a series of seminars on how to get rich in real estate and you get the kind of scam that has now led New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman to sue Trump for $40 million over his "Trump University": State Education Department officials had told Trump to change the name of his enterprise years ago, saying it lacked a license and didn't meet the legal definitions of a university.
