“Our wealthiest colleges and universities have amassed billions of dollars, virtually tax-free, all while indoctrinating our youth with un-American ideas,” Cotton said in a statement, adding that the revenue would “create high paying, working-class jobs.”
Cotton estimates the bill would generate $2 billion per year in revenue for registered apprenticeship programs. And while funding for apprenticeships is necessary, said Sandy Baum, a nonresident senior fellow at the Urban Institute’s Center on Education Data and Policy, taxing endowments of private institutions to generate revenue may not be the way to go.
Private college endowments are funded by private charitable donations, and the money is often used for student financial aid, research and campus improvements, among other expenses.

Accreditation and Policies
Briar Cliff University is accredited as a degree-granting institution by the Higher Learning Commission and is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools. We offer several accredited programs that can lead to professional licensure and have several policies and procedures outlined below designed to protect the health and safety of our campus community and regulate the decisions, actions, and principles of our institution.
States vary in what professions they require to be licensed and how licensure functions. Some states require an individual to graduate from an approved program. Others require an individual to “meet [the] certification requirements of a national organization.” A specific amount of training can also be required as well as passage of an exam based on a state requisite exam score. Often, licensed professionals must complete continuing education on an annual basis.
