Organizers say the nation’s first student debt strike has grown. Almost 200 students have refused to pay back loans they took out to attend schools in the for-profit Corinthian Colleges system, which has been sued by the federal government for its predatory lending. Now more than 1,200 students have threatened to join the strike unless the Department of Education orders the cancellation of the strikers’ debts.
