Gold Standard pulls plug on Union, SANANTONE advocates quality

When gay boys Rich Douglas and Steve Levicoff (RA or the highway...oops...I meant toilet bowl for Union) still had their PhDs from a college that wasn't closed by authorities, there was a lot talk on academic quality. This is when SANANTONE comes in- the QUALITY ADVOCATE. I don't know what kind of degrees sanantone has. I'm guessing she must have earned her Bachelor's in Degreeinfo from years of extensive typing. Heck, I think anything other that Union High is better at this point.

Legitimate, regionally-accredited/GOLD STANDARD schools do not get placed on probation by their accreditor time after time. In 2002, Union Institute & University's PhD program came under scrutiny by the Ohio Board of Regents. Union underwent major academic and structural changes, including the dissolution of Union Graduate School and restructuring of its PhD programs. The PhD in Arts and Sciences, for example, was redesigned as a PhD in Interdisciplinary Studies, with four majors: Ethical and Creative Leadership, Public Policy and Social Change, Humanities and Culture, and Educational Studies.

In 2004, the US Dept. of Education also raised concerns about the quality of the Union's PhD programs specifically. Sorry Rich, it's easy to blame everything on the Union President but this is obviously nothing new. Regardless Rich, sorry I had to scrutinize your PhD and you don't have to defend it.

As an aside, Texas is not a forgiving state. It's actually a learning state. When I emailed Texas Higher Education Board many years ago, they told me they had never suggested any DEAC or ACCSC programs were "inferior." They were very frank (Texas style), and told me their Governor wanted all degree mills out of his state and the fastest way to achieve this was through a blanket policy- regional accreditation (which have since changed and loud and clear on national accreditation). I also asked if CCU made any changes to its programs to meet the Texas requirements. The response I got was a chuckle, as if I was stupid that a school will modify all its programs to meet the requirement of one state.

No offense, sanantone, I didn't mean to bring up your vibrator. Time to get a bf.
