A call to U of Phoenix Online..they're pulling their ad from ABC 911 page!
I saw the University of Phoenix Online banner ad on the ABC "Path to 9/11" page, so I called them.

I spoke with their VP that oversees marketing...and they're pulling the banner ad, and admonishing the internet vendor that places their banners! A DOUBLE WHAMMY.

All from the comfort of my car, on cell, while driving on business.

4. John Sperling, Founder & CEO of U of P, is a hard-core Dem.
Among other things he wrote Retro vs. Metro.

6. "Like using 'Gone with the Wind' to teach the Civil War."
That's what I said to him, he said he couldn't agree more.

8. xcellent work. Maybe I will consider their academic programs more
seriously.

Has anyone done any coursework with them?

How are they regarded as an academic institution?

14. Since they're kind of a national university with branches all over
It depends on the city. In Tulsa, it's considered kind of a joke by people I know.

11. One little person can make a difference.
Edited on Thu Sep-07-06 03:19 PM by longship
And the reason why one little person can make a difference is because we here at DU are over 90,000 little persons who stand together, and stand firm.

DU is truly a wonder. We don't agree on everything, but when we get our collective shorts in a bunch about something, watch out!!!

DUer's, Call, write, and speak out. It's working.
Chimp away at them one person at a time until they give up.
