PA Sues Online 'University' For Spamming

Posted by timothy on from the can-they-get-to-university-of-phoenix-soon? dept.

CousinLarry writes "Online 'university' Trinity Southern University (Google cache of disabled site homepage) has been sued by the state of Pennsylvania." Besides spamming, this self-described school has, as another reader points out, "awarded an MBA to a cat owned by an undercover Pennsylvania deputy attorney general." I bet my cat could get a PhD.

    Good for you... my cat will never get one. She doesn't even know how to use the cat door, she just throws herself at the handle of the back door until it opens...

    I must confess it is funny to see an eight-pound orange furball flying through the air and crashing into the door, then looking confused and trying all over again :)

    But maybe this demonstration of mechanical skills and healthy work ethic is enough for a BS in engineering?

    I agree. When my wife and I were deciding on names for our new cat, we agreed that only if we get a dog, too, the cat would be named "Pentium" and the dog "286". No dog, so we settled on "Chairman Mousey Tongue".

    That's very narrow-minded of you to say. Let me guess, you didn't attend ANY university or college and learn how to open your mind, did you?
