tell me...
If the operation was so "legalised to do so", why did université Sorbon fold, as Prade declared to the press?
PFFT!
And now you'll run the tape from the beginning and tell me I am fat, or that I hate 'all' unaccredited schools...No wait, perhaps you will say that credentials in MY signature are REALLY bogus, while yours (or Sorbon, whatever) only APPEAR questionable to jaded minds, but are 'legal'...
The answer is the issue of unaccredited schools does not involve me in the slightest. I don't care. If it's good for you, buy it. But don't try to bullsh!t me saying it's as marketable, legit, approved, whatever as Harvard extension, ok?
As I said, you have plenty of battles of your own to fight...
Another way to see milled degrees beside the vanity point...you self-publish a book...it may be as good or as bad as it can be depending on the content, right?
1 You publish it with a known self-publishing company...
2 You buy a ISBN and go on cover as the publisher "Great scholarly academic press", or hire premium vanity presses to lend more credibility to the operation...the equivalent of all the fraudulent mill schemes.
This is all very sad Ham and you sound just like RCD - who has no idea what he's talking about. You could, however, let me know your alias at DD?
