WGU Updates: Anonymous student responds, defends her “degree”

UPDATE: One of the WGU students has responded to my posts. This is a step forward since most of the comments i get are either unpublishable invective or look like flak from WGU PR folks.,’

Read the comment thread from older posts here.

I find the editor to be an absolute moron. Lets all make dumbass claims with no sources or proof whatsoever. Here, I will make a claim that only an moron who actually thinks you can buy a degree from a regionally accredited college for $12000 will believe: The author is a very intelligent, well educated individual who thoroughly researches issues and presents them in a impeccable manner! LOL!

Sadly this is ALL I ever get from Western Governors University … troll attacks!  I have offered several of these folks an opportunity to write why they value WGU, why they believe the WGU degree will get them a job, and why they spent more at WGU tyhen they would have spent for a more prestigous degree from a WA state campus.

So far, no bite .. lots of invective. READMORE about why I consider WGU a fraud.

or read a larger discussion on WGU and similar efforts to extract money from adults who need college or university degrees.

    I have been recently introduced to the WGU program and I am planning to obtain my degree from there.

    I think their program is one of the best I’ve seen for people who desire to be better that just status quo.

    Now again, I don’t knock anyone’s decision where they go to college or how. Everyone is entitled to the best decision for their life.

    Knowing that I may get some criticism for my [little] opinion but the school does produce some outstanding professionals.

    Check out the website below and this is not to change your view but give a better look of the caliber of people that WGU has produced.

    Like my brother [ Jerry Davis, deputy chief information officer of information technology security at NASA]. Not bragging just stating the facts. Oh, in case you’re wondering if is legit

    Here’s a link for one article regarding his position at NASA and if you need more proof you can find us both on Linkedin. Have a great day :). I’m the guy in front of the Timberland store.

    Jerry Davis, deputy chief information officer of information technology security at NASA and many other government positions. Including the Department of Education.

    ps. try Google too if you like…..
