Consultants who advise families on college admissions are the subject of a front-page feature article in Sunday's New York Times, which informs us that the admissions advice industry is a "a rapidly growing, largely unregulated field," and that "No test or licensing is required to offer such services." The subtext seems to be that regulation and licensing are needed. The Times seems to favor regulation and licensing for every profession except for print journalists, an industry that miraculously seems somehow to function (albeit less and less profitably) without it.
