Mr. Golin,

I appreciate your interest in accuracy, but part of the Wikipedia project is to correct inaccuracies...not just wholesale delete material.

Given your objections, I have tried to more clearly clarify that the accrediation is not CHEA accreditation, but is rather CHEA recognized accrediation. I've also tried to more carefully word other items that may be of special concern to a CHEA board member.

But I submit that the extended discussion of accreditation and CHEA as a "self appointed, self policing" mechanism of colleges, universities and accreditors should be more clearly pointed out.

If you feel a need to correct and clarify, please do so. But wholesale deletion of materialis inappropriate...especially, in my opinion, because you are a CHEA board member and it could give the appearance that there are points being raised that you don't want to see discussed.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.143.31.236 (talk • contribs)


Dear Wikipedia contributor,

CHEA is not self-appointed; the USDE is, by statute, to identify an authoritative agency to participate in oversight of the U.S. accrediting system. It is CHEA that USDE identifies this way.

I do not mean to have given offense-- it is not my intention to distress you. However, so much of what you wrote was incorrect that the obligation to correct your submission should be yours.

I do not think it is reasonable to name only two members of the CHEA board. Either the chair alone, or the entire board would be better. But also, none of the CHEA administration is named, and this is curious.

I removed 70.143.31.236's rambling diatribe. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Breaklaugh99 (talk • contribs)
