HTC store inside a store inside a store
Opening today inside Hollywood Trading Company (which is itself inside Fred Segal Santa Monica): a pop-up store from The Generic Man. The shop will have a few exclusives, including Canvas Chuckmans in black or gray from TGM's Spring '09 collection. But the real action happens at the August 23 opening party, where the brand will launch its new Re-Edit collection (pictured). The kicks are handmade from vintage army materials, making them both eco-friendly—after all, this is the land of the Prius—and stylish. (Note: Enthusiasm for actual militarism not required.) Can't make it to L.A.? The shoes will see an international release next January.

American InterContinental U. to Close Its Troubled Los Angeles Campus
American InterContinental University, an arm of the Career Education Corporation, has announced plans to gradually close down its troubled Los Angeles campus.
The branch came under criticism in 2006, when dozens of former students, faculty members, and administrators told The Chronicle that officials there were misleading students and recruiting and admitting students who were not qualified.
American InterContinental, known as AIU, said in a news release that it would begin a gradual “teach-out” of the campus, but gave no date for its closing. Under a teach-out, no new students are admitted.
In December, AIU was removed from probation by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools.
Nonetheless, George Miller, AIU’s chief executive officer, said in a statement that “the impact of a two-year probation, coupled with the current market for AIU’s programs in Los Angeles, is such that the student population at the campus has decreased significantly, and likely will not reach the sustainable level necessary to support the addition of new programs and necessary resources.”
On Friday, the Career Education Corporation, the parent company, announced that it would teach out nine other colleges that it owns. —Goldie Blumenstyk
