Accredited
online diplomas and degrees: Getting a fast online degree from a good
distance program
Considering an online degree? Not a small decision. Some
people
are looking for a fast online life experience credits, diplomas and
degrees, and aren't concerned about the quality of the
school.
Others want a respected on-line degree school that also gives some life
experience credit, and still others expect to work their way through a
two or three year part time online degree program to get a degree they
can be proud of and their current or future employers can respect.
One of the biggest battles raging regarding onlnie degrees is the wide
spectrum of quality of the online bachelors programs. Some are equal to
traditional classroom-based educational programs and bachelor degrees,
and others are basically diploma mills, where you can purchase or buy
an online bachelors degree quickly and easily (though not necessarily
particularly cheaply). Such companies- I mean Educational Institutions-
usually have validation numbers where empoyers and others can call and
verify you earned your degree from a legitimate scam- I mean school.
So there are high quality onlnie degrees on the one hand, and
fast bachelors diplomas online on the other. This leaves many
employers, both current and future, skeptical of any on line bachelor
degrees and programs. That skepticism is becoming ever more likely to
uncover bachelors degrees that weren't earned from accredited online
institutions.
So, get clear about the kind of degree you really want- what your
purposes are, and which way to go is most intelligent in the long run.
Then start looking.
And whatever you are looking for, be sure to check out your options
carefully on line, and be sure you know what you are getting with
whichever online courses you choose to take. Don't be afraid
to
ask questions and be sure to read the fine print. It's a big
decision, and an expensive one. Be sure you end up with everything you
were expecting.
Funny
Teaching stories and humorous animal stories: The Rabbit and her thesis
One sunny day a rabbit came out of her hole in the ground to enjoy the
fine weather. The day was so nice that she became careless and a fox
snuck up behind her and caught her.
"I am going to eat you for lunch!" said the fox.
"Wait!" replied the rabbit, "You should at least wait a few days."
"Oh yeah? Why should I wait?"
"Well, I am just finishing my thesis on 'The Superiority of Rabbits
over Foxes and Wolves.'"
"Are you crazy? I should eat you right now! Everybody knows that a fox
will always win over a rabbit."
"Not really, not according to my research. If you like, you can come
into my hole and read it for yourself. If you are not convinced, you
can go ahead and have me for lunch."
"You really are crazy!" But since the fox was curious and had nothing
to lose, it went with the rabbit. The fox never came out.
A few days later the rabbit was again taking a break from writing and
sure enough, a wolf came out of the bushes and was ready to set upon
her.
"Wait!" yelled the rabbit, "You can't eat me right now."
"And why might that be, my furry appetizer?"
"I am almost finished writing my thesis on 'The Superiority of Rabbits
over Foxes and Wolves.'"
The wolf laughed so hard that it almost lost its grip on the rabbit.
"Maybe I shouldn't eat you; you really are sick ... in the head. You
might have something contagious."
"Come and read it for yourself; you can eat me afterward if you
disagree with my conclusions."
So the wolf went down into the rabbit's hole and never came out.
The rabbit finished her thesis and was out celebrating in the local
lettuce patch. Another rabbit came along and asked, "What's up? You
seem very happy."
"Yup, I just finished my thesis."
"Congratulations. What's it about?"
"'The Superiority of Rabbits over Foxes and Wolves.'"
"Are you sure? That doesn't sound right."
"Oh yes. Come and read it for yourself." So together they went down
into the rabbit's hole.
As they entered, the friend saw the typical graduate abode, albeit a
rather messy one after writing a thesis. The computer with the
controversial work was in one corner. And to the right there was a pile
of fox bones, on the left a pile of wolf bones. And in the middle was a
large, well-fed lion.
The Moral of the Story:
The title of your thesis doesn't matter. The subject doesn't matter.
The research doesn't matter. All that matters is who your advisor is.

Funny University Application
Letter
Dear
sir or Mam,
I
would like to apply for a colege degre. I have real smarts, mostly
self-learned though you wood not no it. I can read real advanced, and
can also write Engish and other langauges. I’m a real
lingist. My
communicatoin skils are to die for- least my Ma said that on her death
bed. Maybe I could be a nurse or emergency technician or
minister or
divinity expert like a chaplain. Or maybe all three! And I have been
studyng up on a lot of majer subjcts. A distants correspondance coarse
would help me get some educatoin and gradjuate with a
deploma. I'm not
so certian yet which degee I want to get, but I know it shouldn't be in
mathmatics or enginering. I'm not so good with engines, or any
technology like electrical lights and electronics and such. I
can’t
even see electrons- they make them so small these days! I’m
good at
accounting though. I’m always a counting my finances, which I
keep
mostly in my pocket for safe keeping. I could be an economist but maybe
just for one person at a time. I was thinking about maybe
crimnal
justice, becuase I think justise is a good idea as long as it is fair.
I’d be a real fine judge, in my estimation. Or a lawyer or
even an
attorney. I really like counseling too. But my
therapy is almost over
cuss of insurence running low. But my therpist says I'm good
and ready
to cross that line and move on to a greener pastor. Dunno why a pastor
would be green, unless he ate my potato salad! Anyhoo, so if
you'd
consider me for one of your bachelor dgrees I'd be pleased as punch-
not that I drink you understand. I mean I drink water, for
sure. Maybe
I should study biology or nutrition or agriculture. Yeah,
maybe a
bachelers dgree in farming, and then I could work my way up to being a
master of something, then a docter- if you have docterate pograms that
is. I mean, not like a health or medical degre- I mean one of those P
hd diplomas you get from taking a bunch of tough courses for a year and
wrting a theses or disertation or something. I do a lot of writing,
though mostly in my head. Maybe I could be a great socail scientist or
busines profesional. I could even maybe be like the head of the
univercity program and then maybe even become a political science
sientist politicain! YEAHI could be President! President of the whole
country- not just part of it! Course, fist I guess I should enquire- do
you guys have like a GED highschool diploma progrm? I mean, just to get
all warmed up? P.S. Please reply quickly as I am 94 years young and
I’m
told by my social worker and parol officer I have some geriatric
tendencies which I’m guessing is some kind of code for being
a hit with
the ladies. Or hit by them anyway. Much abliged,
B.A. Johnston,
Graduate of the University of Hard Knocks.
