Not exactly news, but George Gollin (George D. Gollin, George Dana Gollin), the Princeton dumbass who likes to pretend he understands accreditation, has been proven clueless yet again.
This time Dr. Dumbass gleefully emitted his latest embarrassing public discharge of Ivy League flatulence, entitled United Business Institute (UBI), Belgium is zapped. The gist of it being that UBI is not authorized to award degrees in Belgium.
However, within minutes poster Johann politely informed Gollum that UBI degrees are awarded by the University of Wales. Thus what Belgium has to say about it is entirely irrelevant, and Gollum's post is utter nonsense. The only person "zapped" was the idiot Gollum himself.
As anybody who has the least clue about accreditation would know, it is common practice in the UK for degree-granting "recognised" bodies to accept coursework from non-degree granting institutions. In fact, the UK has a large group of its own "listed" bodies that, while not authorized to issue degrees themselves, are authorized to conduct courses leading to degrees awarded by "recognised" bodies such as the University of Wales.
Even Peter French was able to quickly evaluate the situation and note that it is a Welsh degree that is delivered, not a Flemish degree. Apparently simple enough for the American Coastline guy, but the Dumbass Factory guy just can't quite grasp it.
It's a foreign country, Gollum, they do it their way, which is different than we do it in the US of A, and they don't really give a crap whether you like it or not. Get a clue, Sphincter Boy! Ask one of your socialist buddies about "cultural imperialism," you condescending fascist loser.

Apparently their license to operate in New Mexico expired in 2008, and they seem to be "in transition." That may mean they are just relocating elsewhere or that they are down for the count. The fact that people are complaining about them to the BBB and getting no response tends to sound more like the latter, although there is no indication of the exact nature of the complaint (i.e., whether it was student related or not).
We like to see these kinds of innovative programs, and the price certainly was right. Sad to see that they seem to be departing from the scene and leaving a bit of wreckage behind.
What's the first thing you do when a mental case starts blasting on campus? If you are an RA "Gold Standard" monolith like Virginia Tech the answer is obvious: Call your family and friends first, lock the President's office door, then wait an hour and a half before issuing a campus alert.
Quote:Governor irate over new findings that some officials notified own kin first
updated 12:00 p.m. PT, Fri., Dec . 4, 2009
RICHMOND, Va. - Some Virginia Tech officials warned their own families and the president's office was locked down well before a campus-wide alert was issued in the 2007 slayings of 32 people, according to a revised state report that details new fumbles in the response to the worst mass shooting in U.S. history.
The updated report, released Friday, also found that one student survived several hours after being shot without anyone notifying her family until she had died.
At least two officials with a crisis response team called their family members after the first shootings at a dorm and about 90 minutes before the all-campus alert was issued at 9:26 a.m. The president's office was locked down at 8:52 a.m. and two academic buildings were also shut down before the general alert.
The revisions, made partly in response to requests from victims' families, also added details about troubling behavior by Seung-Hui Cho and includes information from his mental-health records. Cho killed 32 people and injured several others before killing himself on April 16, 2007, in the deadliest mass shooting in modern U.S. history.
Gov. Timothy Kaine said the findings that some school officials called their own family members about the initial shootings in a dorm before an all-campus warning was issued were "inexcusable."
"There is almost never a reason not to provide immediate notification," Kaine told the Associated Press Friday. "If university officials thought it was important enough to notify their own families, they should have let everyone know."
The revised report is likely to bring new scrutiny for university President Charles Steger, who has resisted calls from family members of some victims to resign over the response to the massacre.
"He's got to live with himself," said Dennis Bluhm, who lost his son Brian and said Friday he no longer cares if Steger resigns. "If he's got any heart at all, and I'm not sure he does, he's got a long life to live with this on his brain."
Same recommendations
While new details were added and other portions were corrected or clarified, the original report's conclusions and recommendations were not revised. The first document was critical of communications failures, privacy laws and other factors, and issued suggestions on improving campus emergency procedures and notification systems, mental health regulations, and gun purchase reporting requirements.
Kaine agreed to the revision to correct factual errors and reflect new information that emerged after the panel he appointed to investigate the slayings completed its first document in August 2007. Victims' parents had pressed for corrections, and wanted university officials and others to be held more accountable for their roles.
Virginia Tech spokesman Mark Owczarski said in a statement Friday that "none of the new information merited changes to any of the recommendations in the original report."
On April 16, 2007, two people were killed at a residence hall at about 7:15 a.m. About 2 1/2 hours later, police responded to a 911 call of the shooting at an engineering classroom building about a half-mile away on the opposite end of the 2,600-acre campus.
After the scope of the carnage was clear, angry students and employees demanded to know why the first e-mail warning from police and administrators did not go out to them for more than two hours, even though the killer of two people was at large and would go on to strike a second time.
Delay tied to different policies
The amended report found that Virginia Tech had two different emergency-alert policies in effect when the shootings took place, and that led to a delay in issuing a university-wide alert until nearly two hours after Cho killed his first two victims.
Kaine said he is considering whether legislation requiring immediate notification procedures might be submitted to the General Assembly before he leaves office Jan. 16.
Emily Hilscher, one of the two dorm victims, survived for three hours after she was shot, according to the amended report. But no Virginia Tech officials, police or hospital representatives notified her parents about her injuries or whereabouts until after she died.
The report also adds more information, including Cho's records from the Cook Counseling Center, which were made public earlier this year. It also concludes that university officials and police failed to look into signs about Cho's mental state, including "a long list of frightening writings and aberrant behaviors."

Embattled Athens County, Ohio Democratic Chairwoman Susan Gwinn was indicted Monday on two counts of election-related bribery, special prosecutors announced today.
Gwinn, who last month was charged with six felonies for campaign finance crimes and money-laundering, became the subject of a voter fraud investigation after an email from [regionally accredited Ohio University] College Democrats Vice President Kellie Galan surfaced in which students were promised a cash bounty for every voter brought to the polls.
“Remember, if you bring a friend from 4th ward they are more then [sic] a friend, they’re 5 bucks!” Galan wrote to fellow College Democrats in the email.
Athens’ 4th Ward featured a hotly contested city council race between College Democrat-endorsed incumbent Christine Fahl and Republican challenger Randy Morris. Fahl defeated Morris by a slim 30 vote margin.
Athens GOP County Chair Pete Couladis demanded an investigation after news of the email broke, telling reporters “maybe the College Democrats received a stimulus check to help get people to vote.”
“If money was being paid or offered by the College Democrats to college students or anyone else to vote, this is a serious violation of Ohio’s elections laws,” said Couladis.
Athens County Prosecutor Dave Warren, a Democrat, said at the time the investigation was launched, “I think it smells like the Democrats are trying to buy an election.”
The evidence overwhelmingly suggests as much, and also suggests College Democrats played a central role in this crime.
According to Ohio’s bribery statutes concerning voting, “advance, pay, or cause to be paid or procure or offer to procure money or other valuable thing to or for the use of another, with the intent that it be part thereof shall be used to induce such person to vote or refrain from voting” is illegal.
Presently, no members of the College Democrats have been indicted in the vote bounty scheme, likely attributable to the logistical and public relations nightmare in trying dozens of co-eds with voter fraud.

Tough to decide where to post this one. Gay Al? Toelicker Chip? Dumbass Gollin? Gus "Medilogic" Sainz? A little something for everyone.
A fake doctor without a fake degree, but he used a real stethoscope, a real blood pressure monitor and...a real black bag! All to deprive unfortunate young men of their vital bodily fluids!
Why aren't Klempner, Gollin and the rest of the clones on the march about this cum humbug? Shouldn't they be calling on Congress to investigate this deceitful semen scam? Doesn't public safety require licensing of everyone who owns or possesses any of these instruments of fluid fraud? Shouldn't every stethoscope, blood pressure monitor and black bag carry a warnng label to prevent this sort of spurious sperm swindle?
Quote:The Phoenix resident, who allegedly stole a San Francisco physician's identity, may be responsible for more than two dozen sexual assaults in two states, authorities say.

An Arizona man who allegedly stole the identity of a San Francisco physician and posed as a doctor running a West Los Angeles sperm bank has been arrested on suspicion of sexually assaulting two men, authorities said.
Jeffrey Lynn Graybill, 40, of Phoenix is accused of pretending to be "Dr. Robert Richardson" and soliciting sperm donors for the nonexistent Fertility Clinic of West Los Angeles, said Jane Robison, a spokeswoman for the Los Angeles County district attorney's office.
Graybill was brought back to Los Angeles after being arrested Wednesday in Arizona, investigators said. He had moved from Marina del Rey to Phoenix in August.
Investigators believe that there may be more than two dozen other victims in California and Arizona.
Although he had no medical license, Graybill allegedly advertised himself as a physician through Internet listings on Craigslist and solicited potential clients, offering up to $4,000 monthly for sperm donations for "stem cell and other research."
Graybill, a property manager, had been trained as an emergency medical technician and used leftover medical equipment such as a stethoscope and blood pressure monitor to convince men that he was a doctor, said Officer Ian Carbonell of the Los Angeles Police Department.
"He carried a black bag like a doctor," Robison said.
Graybill arranged to meet the first victim at the man's home June 10 and the second on June 20 at an apartment Graybill managed. He is accused of posing as a physician and fondling both men, Carbonell said.
After Graybill failed to pay the men, one of them filed a complaint with Los Angeles police in June, triggering the investigation, Carbonell said. He said Phoenix police also are investigating Graybill in connection with several similar assaults on men there.
Prosecutors have charged Graybill with 11 felonies, including practicing medicine without certification, identity theft, sexual penetration and sexual battery by fraud.
He is being held in custody in lieu of $590,000 bail and is due back in court Oct. 16, Robison said.

Well, maybe not cheap, but definitely less expensive than most.
Basic program tuition totals $16,500...but, you can get as many as 15 units transfer credit, which could bring it down as low as $11,500. Plus if you pay cash up front you get another 10% off, bringing it down to $10,350. Still not pocket change for most of us, but a great deal for an accredited (DETC) doctorate.
University of Atlanta is the former Barrington that was one of the clones' favorite whipping boys. That combined with the price makes it one to take a long look at if you are thinking of going the DBA route.
More details online here, and the prospectus they send you if you fill out the online "pre-application" is attached below.
So academics at accredited universities invented global warming and turned non-believers into academic pariahs. It was all a fraud, apparently done to keep the grant money flowing. Will they have to repay the grants for the faudulent research? Will they lose their jobs? Sounds like academic business as usual.
