George Dana Gollin has a new victim to stalk

"The whole idea that a place can operate when they haven't met the standards is bad, bad policy." Contreras said. "What you need is the state government to take these entities seriously. There are lots of bogus (online) operations out there issuing degrees out of somebody's basement."

First of all no one has proved the mentioned religious exempt school is doing anything wrong. It may be a good school, or not. But they don't prove either. They simply say it may be bad so let's kill it. Here is my view. Prove it bad if it is, or shut the hell up. People who are too lazy or too stupid to do the proper research to find out the truth of the matter have no right to condemn schools, and where the school may operate has nothing to do with it being good or bad. Only its actions can make it good or bad.

Now here is the religious exempt school policy under Alan Contreras, the head of state approval in Oregon, that's right state approval NOT accreditation.

"Schools with a Religious Exemption are permitted by state statute (In Oregon under Contreras) to offer specific degrees with exclusively religious titles approved by the ODA but they 'NEED NOT' meet all state academic standards."

"Oregon law requires religious exempt colleges to meet certain standards, so is not full exemption. This is true because such degrees are legal for use in secular work in Oregon."

Oregon Loophole for Exempt Schools Link:

The minimal standards required by Oregon are applied at the application of the exempt school and does not have any follow up after this application stage so the state doesn't know what the schools are doing, and yet these degrees are just as legal to use in Oregon for secular work as the approved schools.

Oregon's version of state approval is no better than any other state. You can use any unaccredited school's degrees by simply stating they are unaccredited. And the Oregon exempt schools, no statement is required.  It appears religious exempt schools are doing just fine in Oregon and they are just as unaccredited and minimally evaluated as any others. If Contreras wants to close down unaccredited schools, I suggest he start in Oregon and not Missouri.
