Bear posted about the January 11 DETC meeting and noted that he found the Trinity candidacy interesting. Is there more than meets the eye here, or is this just a case of Bear wanting to make it seem like he is still a player with the accrediting agencies and other higher education bureaucracies? Do these agencies still consult with Bear? Did they ever, or was J.B. exaggerating his importance in the DL world even in his heyday?
DI thread about DETC meeting

I find the Trinity matter of real interest. Recall that they had achieved candidacy with their regional accreditor, North Central. Then a senior vice president of Trinity, John Fyffe, issued a long and devastating indictment of a great many extremely negative behaviors by Trinity. Trinity announced they would be suing him, but never did. And North Central quietly backed off.
As Chip and others have lamented here, DETC has a history of ignoring applicants' past behaviors, including several that were actually claiming accreditation from worthless organizations on the day they got their DETC accreditation. I would predict the same will happen again with Trinity, and there will be much gnashing of hair and tearing of teeth here, and elsewhere, and life as we know it will probably go on.
I guess Klempner knows a little something about negative past behaviors and worthless organizations, having been associated with so many himself.

You mean John Bear
who ran/owned/ promoted several fully unaccredited schools he now refers to as degree mills?
Quote:MILLARD FILMORE (owner); INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR ADVANCED STUDIES ( President, 3 years); COLUMBIA PACIFIC ( part owner); LONDON INSTITUTE OF APPLIED RESEARCH (owner); FAIRFAX UNIVERSITY ( part owner/founder); GREENWICH UNIVERSITY ( President, 1,5 years ).
fellow clique member George Brown claimed his questionable ICHM school fully met John Bear 's accreditation standards.
and these people have an opinion about other people's past (or present) conduct possibly creating moral dilemmas?
If this is a joke, it isn't funny.

Jews don't believe in absolution? Sounds like more of Klempner's religious intolerance to me. His tribe can't make a good act of contrition and be forgiven, so he doesn't want anyone else to be able to either.
