View Cart... ...isn't the sort of thing you expect to see on a university's home page. Greetings from the president, sure... campus scenes... a few news items... But View Cart? At the Trinity College & University diploma mill, however, way low prices on any level degree in the field of your choice are so tempting, you'll want to start shopping right away, just like Dave Serrano, the top candidate for baseball coach at the University of Oregon: 'The University of Oregon has delayed a follow-up interview with Dave Serrano, the award-winning University of California Irvine baseball coach, amid reports that Serrano obtained his bachelor's degree from a Spanish school that awards degrees but does not require students to attend class. UO should hire him. I think it wants to, because it's handling the diploma mill problem correctly. It's acknowledging it, and it's telling us it's concerned about it. That'll do. It matters not a bit for this job whether the guy is educated, and they've already made an exception for Kilkenny. I mean, I guess you could argue Serrano's not a very good academic role model for the players, but almost no one in a major university sports program is. It's sleazy of Serrano to have bought a bogus BA and passed it off as authentic. But bringing sleaze to major university sports programs is bringing coals to Newcastle. Who cares. |
