    video link

    The video is here. (Try this if the first link doesn't work properly.) Most of the story concerns Saint Regis but the report does not mention the names of the SRU operators.

    There are scenes of the faculty head transplants, the Robertstown "campus" that really shows Winston Churchill's birthplace, the Regis University v. Lorhan et al. complaint, and so forth.

    Part II ran Tuesday night

    Part II of the story is on the web now. There's a link to a 6 minute video of the story on the site here (try here if you have problems).

    The story discusses consequences to the purchasers of bogus degrees, and describes the SRU-related Georgia teachers scandal, as well as the Chrysler factory workers saga.

    For the story, Melissa Luck (KXLY reporter) bought a degree from Suffield.

    There are web site screen shots of Saint Regis, University Services, and Suffield.

    The report says that the state's legislature will be considering matters of accreditation tomorrow (Wednesday). The station plans to run a third story covering this.
