When Shelby taught me chemistry in 1969(or maybe '68) I thought he was a pretty good teacher and a real bright fella.
However, I was wrong...how can he be promoting his internet teaching model and then get whammed for distance learning by SACS, and land on probation? Was I just young and naive thinking he was smart over 30 years ago or did he just recently take on this new model(however I did run into him in an airport about 10 years ago when he was pitching a fit over a canceled flight due to weather, "I have an appointment in D.C., I want to talk to somebody and I mean NOW!!")
In my world now, we take accreditation pretty serious(not SACS) seems like they (Shelby, IHL, etc) are treating this as a minor set back.
If USM looses accreditation, does that mean I have to take chemistry again?
