Greg Thom, Capella's Chief Shyster & Liar

Files Report with SEC Concerning Kickback Scandal

Greg Thom: shyster and liar There are perhaps no other individuals at Capella University who are as dishonest and unethical as Greg Thom, their "chief counsel" and liar extraordinaire. Greg Thom has long been reported on this site for his almost innate inability to tell the truth - he lies to courts under the penalty of perjury, he lies to students, he lies to Federal law enforcement agencies, he lies to the media, heck, he'll lie to just about anyone who he thinks he can deceive. (Note, we haven't posted all of Greg Thom's lies on this site as he is still the subject of an investigation into his personal role in a complaint against Capella University with a Federal law enforcement agency.) He is, quite literally, what we believe is the very epitome of the definition of a shyster.

What is so disturbing now is that he has just submitted a document on behalf of Capella University to the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding the notorious kickback scandal involving Capella's Director of Financial Aid. Has Greg Thom lied in that document too? Based upon his track record, it wouldn't surprise us and we strongly urge the news media to fully investigate and challenge every single word Thom writes in order to verify it's veracity (or lack thereof). Let's take a look at a few of the statements Greg Thom, liar, has made to the SEC:

  • Statement: "We are commencing our own internal review of this matter, including our relationships with both private loan and FFEL program lenders."
    • Our Response: Now that's comforting. Tell us, Greg Thom, are you going to lie and hide the facts as you've done with so many others (i.e., Federal law enforcement agencies [yes, that's plural], news media, students, etc., etc.). Perhaps you can assemble another one of your sleazy Kangaroo Courts, composed of incompetent morons like those who are currently involved in one of the lawsuits pending against Capella University. Of course, that's the same lawsuit in which Greg Thom served as the prime thug who appears to have masterminded Capella's actions.

Not surprisingly, Greg Thom tries to weasel out of his responsibility to tell the truth in information he provided to the SEC with much discussion given to "forward-looking statements." It appears as if this is one way in which those who file such documents with the SEC can make statements for which they can later back out from. How convenient.
