breaking contract

Have you gone back to the Agency that sponsored the fair to see if there is a measure of protection against unscrupulous schools who give misinformation to get you to sign a contract? This type of behavior seems to be problematic. I pnce signed a contract at a 'reputable' school only to have them contact me eight weeks later, stating that they mis-quoted a stipend amount in my contract and that they were "sorry" and it would be changed. As far as I am concerned, IT IS A CONTRACT! Although the actual sum was minor ($40.USD/Month) the issue is over representation and integrity. When I contacted the agency who sponsored the fair, they stated, "we don't get involved in contract disputes".
