Southern University was warned last week that it could lose its accreditation that is required for the school to offer degrees and receive federal dollars.

The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools Commission on Colleges placed Southern University on a warning list during its June board meeting. SACS is one of the six major accrediting bodies in the U.S. for higher education institutions.


So how waysist is this accrediting body? And what will be Gravy's excuse for this failure of a university?

Will Volod ever get his degree?

The MOST SHOCKING aspect of this story is that Southern currently has accreditation.

If that happens, why should the state subsidize. Close it

I have a few friends who are employees at SU

Believe me when I tell you it is so much worse than the newspapers let on...

Decades of incompetence and underfunding has lead to shortcuts and underqualified personel running departments they should have never been hired to work in the first place.

The state should absolve themselves of SU and let it be a fully private university.

Southern received the sanction because the school missed benchmarks related to its faculty, student achievement, "institutional effectiveness," and student complaints.
quote:

"In one year, the University will submit a report documenting the progress made in each area," said Southern University spokesman Henry Tillman in a statement. "Because the University has already begun to address each issue and significant progress has been made, we are confident that monitoring beyond next year will not be necessary."
