You know, I really do wonder what sort of criteria these accreditation
associations use to determine if a school is up to par. I mean I know you can
get a BS in computer science, and all that, but you can also get a degree in
health that leads you to being an ayurvedic consultant? And not any ayurvedic
consultant, but a MARSHY ayurvedic consultant.
And physics? Where they teach that consciousness is the basis of all physics
stuff and make this statement in their physics program PR:
"The most creative physicists have always emphasized human consciousnessas the
foundation for the scientific method used in physics."
Now what does that mean?
I can't see that it has any actual meaning. It seems to be vague enough to have
plausible deniability if challenged but, if you are in the know, is elevating
their own theoretical physics to higher acclaim than it deserves.
How creative does a physicist have to be?
The more the better I would have said, and that goes for all sciences. Progress
comes from ideas and the refining process of criticism of ideas. And they all
come from creativity. Sure you need to be smart enough to understand the ideas
that others have held so you cane see where they went wrong in order to have a
better idea as a solution , but it's the coming up with new theories for
looking at things that moves us forward.
But all this seems to be in flat contradiction to the primary mystical teaching
that supreme knowledge only comes from inside via transcendence. Go figure...
At any rate, they must have low standards if they keep giving MUM any sort of
accreditation.
I think you can get away with all sorts of crap like creationism etc, if you
turn out enough pupils who can turn on a computer or have learned something
that doesn't depend on the belief system to the extent that you can't mix with
other students with a different set of assumptions. Most humanities subjects or
practical trades would do here. It's things like physics, biology and Earth
science where you may fall down because teaching stuff that is demonstrably
untrue isn't doing anyone any favours and will get found out if they ever go
somewhere more empirical.
I was visiting friends who had kids at the Marshy school in Skem and their son
- who was expert at maths and planned to study physics at Oxford - proudly
announced that he had got an "A" in joytish. I nearly choked on my lentil pie.
What sort of preparation for a real education is that? I wonder if they teach
it but tell pupils not to mention it when they get to the outside world as they
"wouldn't understand". It turned out not to matter as he rejected the whole
vedic thing using his own smarts.

Yup, MJ's dropping an unqualified slur in here is in kin withsomeone running
in to a mosque and detonating an IED like happenedthe other day in Saudi
Arabia. Like the terrorist in the mosque itwas meant to hurt a community of
people and in this case is plainlyagainst the spirit of the Yahoo-groups

No, MJ's post to FFL as a Yahoo-group quite clearly was not evenclose to
satire as he posed it. As posted it was flat out a sluremployed to insult and
damage reputation.
If it was intended satireit would have directly manifested humor and irony
juxtaposed in some level of truth.What MJ did here was evidently drop in a
baldfaced lie leaving it leftunqualified, as a slur.
Caught now, he is frantically diving for cover now.
MJ at the least should apologize to the North Central Accreditation Board
members he has defamed with his comments here if not the whole of the
university community of MUM. It is really quite appalling what he has done
here by most any standard of common decency, let alone by the Yahoo-groups
guidelines ultimately guiding us in this forum. -JaiGuruYou

Dear MJ; No, yours appearing here was a flat out slur and you arediving for
cover now trying to say it was satire. Even Anartaxiuswith his enormous
intellectual power here is saying he missed itentirely as satire.
What you dropped as a rhetorical IED here doesnot even come close to satire.
Unqualified as you dropped it in hereon a Yahoo-groups its effect quite
evidently is to damage in slur MUMand those associated with it.

I doubt that, MJ. You are calling in to question the integrity ofthe whole of
the accreditation system by saying that. Your assertion likely is just one of
those folk stories that people will tell and repeat.Rather, your response here
without any qualification seems just aslur. Who offered the bribe and who took
it and did anything withit? It very likely would be criminal if it happened.
Which accreditation teamwas it? Which year?
