CADILLAC â An article that ran in Thursday s paper about a state aid program for attending Michigan community colleges incorrectly stated that Baker College was a for-profit institution, which is a misconception that Baker officials have been battling for a number of years.
The following is a statement from Baker College President Kelly Smith clarifying their business model. Baker College is one of Michiganâs largest independent colleges and also holds a distinction not held by many for-profit higher education institutions around the nation: We are a not-for-profit institution with tuition as our sole source of income. We do not receive federal or state funds or alumni donations, and our goal is not to make money for investors. Our solitary mission is providing quality higher education that enables graduates to be successful throughout challenging and rewarding careers.
