Accreditation[edit]

Accreditation is the correct term to use when describing the school. See http://rules.calbar.ca.gov/LinkClick.aspx?fileticket=d-EEG4iWTQM%3d&tabid=1227 --S. Rich (talk) 18:44, 26 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Accreditation is a misleading term to use when describing the school, as the State Bar of California Committee of Bar Examiners is not a recogized accrediting agency. See http://www2.ed.gov/admins/finaid/accred/accreditation_pg7.html and http://www.chea.org/Directories/special.asp. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.171.224.83 (talk) 22:26, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This is interesting. As I understand, "accreditation" is required of a school before students are eligible for student aid programs. Perhaps the requirement is more subtle than I realize. --S. Rich (talk) 00:34, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Accreditation has multiple meanings. It is possible to have programmatic accreditation (for example, from the American Bar Association) without having institutional accreditation. Law students seldom would get federal financial aid, so institutional accreditation might not be a concern. --Orlady (talk) 05:55, 29 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Patricia Morrow -- dubious tag[edit]

The CA State Bar member search website does not give a listing for "Morrow" that fits Patricia Morrow. See: http://members.calbar.ca.gov/fal/MemberSearch/QuickSearch?FreeText=morrow&x=67&y=11&SoundsLike=false Also see Talk:Patricia Morrow.--S. Rich (talk) 18:13, 22 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

!The tag is at this point in your investigation unjustified. You should voluntarily remove the tag. The article never claimed the Ms. Morrow was a lawyer. The articles just asserts that Ms. Morrow is a law school graduate. Just because Ms. Morrow may not have passed or even sat the California Bar does not mean that she did not graduate from a law school. 1/3 of persons, who graduate from U.S. law schools, never sit a bar in any state, but, instead, use their legal knowledge in other fields like business and social work. This may be the case with Ms. Morrow, who appears from the article to be a social activist of a sort. Along these lines, Glendale University offers an undergraduate degree in law, which includes 60 units of law school course work in its curriculumn, but, does not qualify its recipient to sit the California or any other states bar. The daughter of Glendale University College of Law founder Seymour Greitzer graduated from Glendale University with this B.S.L. degree and, of course, is not and is not qualified to be a lawyer. Go to www.linkedin.com/in/kgreitzer. Columbia University, a school of some considerable prestige, offers an M.S.W. with a minor in law for completion of 16 additional units of adjuntive courses at the University's Columbia Law School, also, itself, an institution of no small reputation. This graduate social work degree, granted jointly by Columbia University's Schools of Social Work and Law, while with 2 additional years of specified work experience qualifying its recipient for licensure as a clinical social worker in most states, however, does not qualify its recipient to sit any states bar. As educational records are confidential, perhaps, you might attempt to contact Ms. Morrow about this matter before jumping to the conclusion that she has not acheived that which is claimed.!
