When this "audit" has happened in the past and word of it spread among students in the programs, students have fled the programs for several semesters--afraid, if not for themselves, for fear of being questioned about relatives or friends. Some programs lost as many as 1/3 of their students.

We were being 'threatened' with an audit by (I gather) the state DOE. I really appreciate your response and the information. Hope it's not quite as cold in NJ as the news is reporting.
