I believe such institutions are known collectively as "Walden", are they not? Over time, I've encountered one or two myself ... still, this is in danger of becoming political! WFL _______________________________________________ I've never previously seen the term "Walden" applied to such institutions. Has anyone else? A Google search on "Walden" brings up Walden University, an online school based in Baltimore MD. I don't see this as political post. We would like to know which colleges these are so that students and job seekers can avoid them.
