Legal Question in Education Law in Louisiana

Can I sue a private college (more of a tech college) for responsibility of a teacher's practices in class in which she gave 100% for a quiz if you failed it and gave her "coke rewards?" I blew the whistle because this was just wrong--she was essentially giving grades for money. She found out it was me who blew the whistle, told the class I was the one who ruined their "privileges" and they turned on me. This is a tech school that has some rough types attending. If I'd known then (when I signed up) what I know now, I would never have enrolled. I'm $15,000 in debt with school loans, no certificate of completion and cannot go back to class. I was 5 1/2 months into a 9 month course.
