On May 30, 2003 at distancelearn.about.com, you wrote to someone that
"Oh, and your work at Kennedy-Western isn't recognized in academia,"
professing the great utility of, say, Union Ph.D's that are recognized
among those in the academia or professorial circles.

Today, from the post at Degreeinfo you wrote that "you don't see a lot
of Union
graduates teaching at traditional universities."
So clearly, Union Ph.D's. are close to useless in securing
professorships at real universities. I guess the prestigious
Chronicle of Higher Education article sums it up quite well
http://chronicle.com/jobs/2003/08/2003080601c.htm
At least now we know why the Douglas fool is currently Assistant
Professor at the unaccredited Virginia International University, and
not Virignia State College. We also know why Mr. Douglas has been
hesistant to make available his earth-shaking dissertation, which now
has become Virginia's favorite diarhera reading.
It is unfortunate to see the Douglas fool and the rest of the
Degreeinfo monkeys continuing to recommend Union and Touro College to
learners, when in fact both of these insitutions are placed on
probation for substandard academics by their local degree granting
authorities.

Hi "Roy", "Toughnut" or whatever alias you are using now.
Yes Degreeinfo.com is probably the best site for information on
distance learning. No there is no downside to it. When will you ever
learn that crime (ie degree mill shilling) doesn't pay? Hahahahaha.

Just what the hell career change did Douglas make with his Doctorate.
He has claimed he makes so much money he can't afford to take a job
teaching. Well, there he is again working at an unaccredited school.
He would kiss the ass of John Bear twice a day if someone would just
get him any job at a real college. With Excelsior, National, Union, in
the resume, no decent school will hire him. He has to work at the very
schools he can't stand, unaccredited, no one else can stomach 4
claimed degrees in 21 months. Degree info, home of winners or whiners,
Chip White college dropout telling people with master's degrees how to
get doctorates, Gus Sainz, no degrees, probably not even his real
name, telling people how brilliant and knowledgeable he is, Bruce Tait
a cop with an attitude, how rare is that? Uncle Janko, not his real
name, a man of God, hardly, just an embittered man attacking everyone
who disagrees with him. Man of God, show me any bit of Jesus Christ in
the sour, foul creature, more of Satan than God to this demon. Degree
info home of the pathetic losers trying to convince the world their DL
degrees from bottom level schools represent good learning. Apparently
employers don't see it that way. Which of these losers is the
President of a company? a real company, not some of that made up crap
of Chip White. Which one teaches at Stanford or the like? Which one is
a Senator, Mayor, congressman, Owner of a major business. They are
giants in their own minds, but just pathetic losers trying to tell the
world they count, and they don't. How pitiful to create a forum just
to look important.

He sacrificed more than just kissing Bear's asshole, and still he
couldn't get a teaching job at a real college.

He's asking for cash and donations so he's pretty broke himself.
Funny he's qualified to give people advice.
Gus Sainz, no degrees, probably not even his real

Sounds like very insecure individual to me, a chickenshit too.
Bruce Tait

A cop, a dime a dozen. A dirty liar too.

The answer is none. None are big shots, and apparently all losers
trying to convince each other how tough it is to earn their TESC
degrees by getting credits for playing a guitar and watching porns.
Next thing you know we'll all get 6 credits each for walking and
running.
