James Madison is a university.

John Melvin might be a school.

Part of me has always wondered if they are somehow trying to take advantage of people being too dumb to realize these are different names.

It's also odd to me that the kid the school is named after was from Morgan City/Berwick, but they opened the school in Crowley.

I guess Crowley offered greater amenities...

I once dated a girl from Erath who decided on getting her degree online from Kaplan University because she legit thought it was based in Kaplan, Louisiana. Since employers frowned upon degrees from U of Phoenix, they wouldn't frown upon that one because it was "local".

John’s sister, and her husband, run the school. Apparently they tried this in Beaumont just a couple short years ago.
