Wonder what courses are in the CATalog..
I always knew cats weren't as smart as they acted.
Quick Google search:Guy from University of San Francisco lists PhD from TSU: http://urology.ucsf.edu/faculty/facDahiya_bio.html
Here's a minister: http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Delphi/6712/personal.html
With a little more work, might we turn up someone interesting?

But it won't be me stuck trying to take away the kitty's degree . . . |
I guess they gave credit for "life experience".....
Nine lives equals a whole lot of experience...
NeverGore :^)
But what about the New York Times giving weasels jobs as editorial columnists? All of this concern about feline perks...what about weasine perks?
As an offended hedgehog, I am moving to Canada.
Maybe the cat aced the GMAT and got in fair and square. Ever think of that?
I know someone with a PhD from there. She's under federal investigation for wire and advanced fee fraud. My attorney & I get to go to an all-expense paid trip to Virginia to testify against her. It will be a sweet day, indeed.
Here's a psychologist... http://www.schizophrenia-help.com/Schizophrenia__Jack_Rosberg/schizophrenia__jack_rosberg.htm
When the investigators tabbyulate the persiantage of bogus employees by a maine coont, they'll have somebody by the shorthairs.
You know, the saddest thing about this story is that, given all the left-wing kook professors out there, the cat is probably smarter for having gotten the degree there rather than attending classes.
Well, I would hope that the AG's office at least investigated this and can prove that the cat didn't earn the MBA! I know that if I put in all that time and effort, only to see the state step in and take it away from me, I'd be pretty upset! Owl, do you have any insight on this one, seeing as how you're from Penn.?
"Founded in 1994, the National Association for Prior Learning Assessment Colleges is a professional accrediting association established to uphold and maintain high standards for all levels of online post-secondary education.
"Prior learning assessments are thought by some to be significantly changing higher education, it is not a new phenomenon. Its predecessors are the correspondence courses that have spanned this century, providing education for those learners who could not pursue a traditional education. Yesterday's correspondence courses depended on written materials transmitted between teacher and learner by mail; today's education courses depend on the multitude of constantly changing communication technologies that can transmit instruction and relay materials between learner and teacher.
"These technologies have taken shape at a very rapid pace, erasing traditional barriers of time, space and place and represent the capacity to fundamentally change the standard for transmitting knowledge and skills from master to learner. For reasons of access, economy, effectiveness and convenience, online learning is sweeping higher education and, in the view of some, changing the role of traditional learning to a marketplace that some institutions would prefer not to enter. Whether one is for or against prior learning assessments, one cannot escape its impact."
bump ....
Sasha just got the message that some of her community college courses are not UC transferrable. And she is not amused.
How CATastrophic!!!!
Anyone who doubts my MBA will be summarily dismissed!
The website shows that it is a "dot.org" and not an "edu".
