RespectableGent and Ham, I thank you for this interesting discussion but can we please return to the original question?
Really there seems to be so much opposition to what I believe is a basic individual liberty. It is in the US and elsewhere. This notion that a government sanctioned body must grant accreditation to an institution (even if that institution is licensed by the state,) for it to be considered valid.
Now I myself am not a political office holder, I am not a judge or a lawyer, I do not have a newspaper that I publish. I am without power or influence. But I really want to know if there are any individuals or groups who support the cause of acedemic freedom.
I want to do more than just talk about it. I want to take action.
