	Non-Accredited PA-RU
		Appears to be the new version of Hamilton University.
		Maine requires that foreign degrees be usable within the nation of authorization on the same terms as other college degrees in order to meet the statutory standard of having the "foreign equivalent" of U.S. accreditation.
		Not the same as the legitimate College of New Rochelle in New York or University de la Rochelle in France.

	List of unaccredited institutions of higher learning - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Several unaccredited universities have names chosen because they are similar to those of accredited institutions or falsely imply that it is a public university.
		In the United States, it is possible that unaccredited degrees may not be acceptable for state or federal civil service or other employment; in certain cases and circumstances, criminal penalties may even apply should such a degree be presented in lieu of a degree from an accredited institution.
		It has also been reported [4] that the University of Newlands, a school that was listed as a "wannabe" or "degree mill" by The Australian newspaper, was given permission by the New Zealand High Court to proceed to trial in its suit against the paper's publisher for defamation.

		That’s partly because, while the university — which is operating as a nonprofit — will provide free scholarships to all 150 students it selects for admission, the team has been working to secure donations from corporations and organizations worldwide to pay for those scholarships.
		Confusing The Academy’s address with the University’s seemed to be as much a result of naïveté on the part of you and your alleged experts, as it was a desire to ignore the true facts.
		A reading of the University website and a referral to the documents previously sent to you should have put anyone on notice as to what our position is and put that “off the wall comment” in its place.

	.LiberianForum.Com :: View topic - Liberian government detonates Saint Regis
		Evidence suggests that whatever documents the University claims to have obtained from the Commission were never approved by the Commission and do not bear the signature of the Chairperson.
		HOWEVER: unexpectedly our university received a fax (not a signed letter) on October 2, 2004 (however it was dated July 22, 2004) informing us that Dr Bestman was not the proper authority to have signed the last set of certificates, OR that there was an additional signor required.
		Because this change was apparently made without any notification to the university it is possible that the Minister of Education was making statements that conflicted with those from the National Higher Education Commission thus causing what seemed to be irrational attacks upon the reputation of our school.

		In addition, it has been reported that some of these unaccredited schools have successfully objected against such laws, the most notable being Wyoming-based Kennedy-Western University, which sued Oregon to cease listing it as a diploma mill in 2004 http://www.oregonlive.com/news/oregonian/margie_boule/index.ssf?/base/living/1107867837315370.xml, claiming that its degree-holders had a First Amendment right to say they were degree-holders.
		Oregon now lists Kennedy-Western as "unaccredited", stating that its "degrees do not meet requirements for employment by State of Oregon or for work in any profession licensed by the State of Oregon for which a degree is required" http://www.osac.state.or.us/oda/unaccredited.html.

		Oregon and New Jersey disallow use of degrees from institutions that are not accredited by an agency recognized by the U.S. Department of Education or approved by the state's authorization agency.
		There is a lot of controversy around the definition and use of the term "diploma mill" because, as new university models evolve in the wake of innovations in educational technology, it is hard to come up with a definition of a diploma mill that doesn't include at least one perfectly legitimate unconventional school.

		According to the indictment, the Randocks owned institutions identified as "Saint Regis University," "Robertstown University," "James Monroe University," "James Monroe University High School," and "Trinity Christian School." The schools falsely claimed to operate under the approval of the Liberian government.
		The “schools” were closed by court order in June 2005, and are named by the State of Oregon’s Office of Degree Authorization as “fake schools” and “degree mills.” Such degrees are invalid, and a person using them to claim to have credentials associated with a degree from an accredited educational institution is committing fraud.
		Federal investigators also assert that half the phony degrees sold by "Saint Regis University," "Robertstown University," and "James Monroe University" went to purchasers in foreign countries, many of whom were "students" from Saudi Arabia.

		But for the university support he receives, it’s for his work in his discipline.” This seems to indicate that the University of Illinois believes faculty websites can only include information directly related to their field of research.
