From he has stepped down link:
Laureate said in a statement that Bill Clinton was stepping down
because his five-year term was expiring. The company told Bloomberg that the timing was unrelated to Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign.
In recent weeks, Hillary Clinton has been sharply critical of for-profit colleges, saying in a visit to an Iowa community college that some schools “take all this money and put all these young people and their families into debt.”
“We have to take on those interests that want to keep the system the way it is because it generates a lot of money and a lot of interest payments,” she said.
In the United States, Laureate schools significantly outperform others in the for-profit sector, with low default rates on loans that a Senate report called “the best of any company examined.”
You FAIL.

Student loan debt continues to be one of the largest economic issues plaguing the U.S., with the total amount topping $1.3 trillion. Hillary Clinton’s higher education policy touts debt-free degrees for underprivileged students. But is she being genuine in her efforts to address the issue?
While Hillary loves to rail against shady for-profit colleges on the campaign trail, she does have some financial ties to them that are likely to shape whether or not she holds them accountable for ripping students off.
It was recently revealed through Hillary’s emails that during her first year as Secretary of State she
insisted that Laureate Education be included in the guest list for an education policy dinner hosted at the U.S. Department of State.
“It’s a for-profit model that should be represented,” she wrote in the August 2009 email, and as a result, a senior vice president at Laureate was added to the guest list. Several months later, former President
Bill Clinton became an honorary chancellor of Laureate International Universities, which turned out to be incredibly lucrative.
He was paid a cool $16.5 million between 2010 and 2014 for his role with the for-profit college.
...Some may argue that not all for-profit colleges are created equal, and it’s unfair to group Laureate together with the now defunct Corinthian Colleges, which was forced to cease all U.S. operations due to various state and federal investigations. But Laureate seems to be plagued with similar issues. That’s why the company decided to
expand in Latin American countries rather than the U.S. with
the help of Bill Clinton.
There are five schools in the U.S. that operate under Laureate’s umbrella. Walden University is a Laureate school in Minneapolis, and even though its parent company had the money to pay our former president $4 million a year, Walden charges students
nearly $60,000 in tuition and fees for most undergraduate degrees. According to
