or officer who receives VA educational assistance based on an 
enrollment in that proprietary school: the name and title of these 
employees; VA file numbers; and dates of enrollment at the proprietary 
school
    An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required 
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. The Federal Register Notice with a
