Today, I read the article “Nova may close hundreds of schools”.
*content*
Nova Corp., reeling from an advertising scandal, is planning to close at least 200 of its 900 or so schools by late September to turn around its struggling operations, sources said Sept. 20. The nation's largest language school chain is mainly targeting money-losing branches, but some of the 200 branches are being closed for failure to pay rent. The scandal prompted many students to end their enrollment, and contract cancellations will likely rise. At its peak in June, Nova had some 480,000 students. But Nova admitted in August that total enrollment will likely plunge 19.2 percent year on year by September.

*comment*
I often heard about Nova’s scandals recently. If I remember right, Nova raised another scandal about exaggerated advertisement. I liked “Novausagi” and Nova’s commercial message, so I lament these scandals. A major company should not cause such a scandal. The teacher of my high school days is from Nova. Perhaps she will be disappointed. How will be about this company from now on? I want to watch that interesting commercial once again.

Nova is a very popular English language school. It's a good business in Japan or many other countries, but we should consider why Japanese people like native speakers.
