Self-satisfaction:
"This is a perfectly good reason for wanting a degree, and no one should EVER feel embarrassed about it. Many degree-counseling clients (see appendix C) seek a degree (generally a Doctorate) for self-satisfaction, to gain respect from others, to feel more comfortable with colleagues, or to validate a long and worthwhile career. Such people are Generally Well Satisfied with a degree from one of the more respectable unaccredited schools."
--John Bear--Bear's Guide--1997--page 22
Good reasons in 1997 to get unaccredited degrees and yet one year later, 1998, he can't think of one unaccredited school he would recommend. What a massive shift occured in that one year, how strange, and not over 20-25 years as he now claims. He turned around 180 degrees in one year. Good in 1997, bad in 1998.
