DETC 1993: how things have changed

In the course of the housecleaning now going on, I came upon a brochure from the National Home Study Council (previous name of DETC) from 1993.

Just over 10 years ago, they were accrediting eleven degree-granting institutions. Today there are 45.

Only one had a Master's degree; now there are many.

And as best I can determine, four of the eleven (a rather high 36%) are no longer in business--or at least not DETC-accredited. (Not sure about Berean College, Missouri).

Berean University is still alive and well in Springfield, MO. The Assembly of God combined two of their DL schools--ICI University and Berean--under the diploma-mill-sounding "Global University"; Berean is now known as the "Berean School of the Bible". Their umbrella school, Global, is DETC accredited, and very much a legitimate institution of higher learning, the unfortunate name notwithstanding. There are also a number of traditional AG colleges nearby, such as Central Bible College and the flagship AG Seminary--you can't swing a stick in Springfield (near Branson) without hitting three or four Assembly of God college or university students!
