Saint Augustin University = ECOLE SUPERIEURE ROBERT DE SORBON in drag

[ham]

But Ham you were reciting this in 2004 when ESRS first opened - that's 6 years down the track.
On this channel only G-G was supposed to bite.

Please...the klones are going to get a good laugh from these arguments and feel authorized to trash even legitimate unaccredited schools because the same devil advocacy is used to defend blatant mills. I assumed you had your hands full with the fights you have to pick in order to defend your degrees...why do you pick someone else's battles? Unless you are affiliated with them, too...
1. ESRDS has NOT been in operation for six years. UFRDS was, but université folded, as Prade explained to the press.

On its current Web site, Ecole Superieure Robert de Sorbon describes itself as a class of accredited institution that under French law can award degrees based on life experience. It says applicants pay a fee of about $75 and, if accepted, pay a tuition of about $750. A panel of scholars evaluates the applicant's work history and grants a degree 60 days later.-...-
Prade said Universite Robert de Sorbon no longer exists and that he and AUAP are not affiliated with it. Of Ecole Superieure Robert de Sorbon, he said, "It is an institution of higher learning."

I will go as far as saying the maybe they had registered the ASSOCIATION ESRDS in 2004...but they only used UFRDS then, which makes the stressed point of 'in existence' rather commodious; the again, they have perhaps Académie or Séminaire Sorbon in store, too.


2. If you use http://www.archive.org you'll see that ESRDS once claimed:

L'Université francophone Robert de Sorbon est accréditée par l'académie Anjouan Union des Comores, membre de l'agence intergouvernentale de la francophonie.  

and -at the same time-

Université Nord Américaine sans but lucratif observant  les règles d'équivalences universitaires de la Loi du 17 janvier 2002 et des USA (USCIS)

Which is which?
Is the thing French...Comorean...American...all of it...none of it?
Come on, let's be serious...

3. From time to time a remark is made about my favorite unaccredited 'school' : if Université francophone Robert de Sorbon alternatively called Ecole Supérieure Robert de Sorbon is illegal, why didn't the French shut it down?
An explanation is offered on this site in German. legal loopholes.
