ham Wrote:Legal loopholes are the reason why they haven't been shut down...simple as that and already seen in a number of jurisdictions...states known for being easy on diploma mills suddenly 'crack down' and the great legal thing disappear...
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?
Hello Bonjour!
Please note that the Ecole Supérieure Robert de Sorbon:
- Is now 6 years old (created in France in 2004).
- Has the right to grant degrees in France as per Title III, Book VII of the French Code of Education. It is a registered private institution of Higher education regulated and controlled by the Education nationale.
- Has a impressive faculty list, that includes a Vice Rector of one of the most famous world universities and a French Department Director of a public university.
- It applies legally the VAE (Validation des Acquis de l'Expérience) procedure. This 2002 Law mandates French universities to grant part or full degrees on valuable work experience. It is now integrated on Article L-613-3 of the same code of Education.
- Its graduate have been accepted in US & Canadian Universities, Get health related licences and hired by private and public entities in many countries.
- Its multilingual site is at [b]www.sorbon.fr[/b]
We will not comment on the falsehood of some posts as we want to re-establish simply the plain facts.

Fantasy lists of fantasy faculty are not new among degree mills...
One example?
There is one professor who posts his sorbon affiliation

Then, poof! It's gone! [quote]
It most likely disappeared because he was hounded by either you,
G-G, JB, Puffman or RCD, or all 4 of you. I'm sure everyone here will be happy when you stop recycling old rubbish!

Actually, it was NOT Ham who discovered
that individual...when he visited the links to see whether the rumor was true, they had simply disappeared...as simple as that...
Ham never hounded anybody, although a nutcase once threatened to get a tabloid onto Ham's case because Ham had caught him trolling under different identities...but that was in 2002...
Although one can imagine why you would rather make of Ham Cogito#32, the last 1000 or so posts here or elsewhere didn't improve Ham's ranking with the clones...which was pretty darn low last time I checked...and for a few reasons...

Up until you went overboard in getting the knife into KU, and many other private educational establishments, I used to enjoy your posts. But I've noted that you seem to have an obsession with non-USA private educational establishment, but completely ignore those in the USA – and there are lots of them, with most functioning at a far higher level than all the low tier US RA establishments.

Actually,
it was YOU making the mistake of trying to 'expose' the impeccable credentials
in Ham's signature, right?
You then got into what you apparently WANTED to get into, right?

Well, when I read such bollocks as "Ph.D de doctorat", an association pretending to be a university etc, I just cannot resist, sorry...
It isn't fair to take suckers for a ride only because they know no French...or is it for you?

I am not a degree cop, sorry...I don't exactly care about the fine points of doctrine within the closely knit cult of online education websites, nor do I care about unaccredited or bogus schools as a general phenomenon...why? Because I can spot a mill well ahead.
We stand by the quality of our faculty.(
25 Ph.D
The facts, once again, are simple.
[*]For
6 years we are a French registered institution of higher education that is authorized to grant degrees. We use the VAE (Validation des Acquis de l'expérience) procedure, which is included and defined in the French code of education (L-631-3 to L-631-6).
[*] The term " legal loophole" is absolutly false. To the contrary, French private instititutions of higher education like us are stuctly regulated by the following
18 articles[ ( L-7131-1 to 18) , which constitute a
full chapter of the French code of Education (title III Livre VII).
Sincerely,
As I said: believe none and contact your local French authorities for a confirmation in writing about the standing, equipollence etc of ESRDS degrees
within the French educational system: that is what I did.

Sorry Ham, you make no impression on anyone but those at DD, because just like them - and two of them were here briefly - your real love of RA or NO WAY stands out extremely well. Your claim to be able to spot a degree mill is certainly not supported by your comments.
