Is the DETC really second-rate?

[Fort Bragg]

I've heard the DETC put down for too many years. Why would such a weak sister among accreditors have much stricter regulations than the regionals? Schools must use proctored exams and maximum transfer credit is 3/4 of a bachelors or 1/2 of a masters. Life experience learning is also limited to 1/4 of a bachelors. If Levicoff's school TESC was DETC he might have had to take some courses to earn his bachelors.
