At the university, politicians, local governments, businessmen, athletes, as well as average students who paid tuition fairly, counted on subjects and counted on a legal diploma. The editorial atTemat.pl asked the graduates of Collegium Humanum about what classes looked like.

The beginnings of the scandal date back to 2022, erstwhile "Newsweek" revealed that the politicians of the Law and Justice organization were finishing their MBA studies there at an express pace, which opened the way for them to intractive positions in the supervisory boards of the State Treasury companies.
