I went to ITT because I saw an ad on TV. ITT was also advertising heavily in my local paper at the time also, though. I found this particular advertisement for ITT in the San Diego Union Tribune archives. This is around the time I attended at that location.

Looking at the ad, I thought that the name was possibly fake, and/or I would be left wondering who the mysterious Mr. Mayo was, and if he really existed. As it turns out, Mr. Mayo was real, and was a named defendant in at least one class action case against ITT Educational Services.

The curious case of Mr. Mayo has been solved.
