First I would like to thank you and your Staff for your Great Job in closing Diploma Mills,AISM started as a Legit Medical School,They ran into Financial Problems with their Investors,they had to raise fast cash,Most of their students are from the Caribbean,Africa and all over the World,Few came from the USA.You can look into this "Medical School" for yourself,Ask the Ppesident/Owner/Chancellor/CEO Mr.Colin Wilkinson,What is the street Address of the "Campus"in South America? There is None.
I have hesitated to reply to your posting because 1) I know very little about medical education 2) I sense that you have some personal axe to grind with this issue and 3) You have already been asked several questions by others in this forum and you've yet to answer them. On the other hand, it's Sunday night and I'm tired of reading about Process Metaphysics... You are obviously being not so subtle in your allegations. What is the source of your information? You are also implying that people from other countries are not qualified to attend medical school. Do you really believe this? I've gathered that this school while being, perhaps, not the best medical school in the world, is still a recognized (accredited) school and you are more than suggesting that they are crooked. If you're not willing/able to support these allegations you should probably stop making them. You only make yourself look foolish. By the way, after spending an entire 60 seconds on the AISM website I found the street address of their South American campus: 301 Church St. Georgetown Guyana If you have information on this issue you should state it directly. Otherwise... Jack
Are you affiliated with AISM? Do they teach about commas, capital letters, and spacing between sentenes? Byran
Well, this is a creepy coincidence. I, too, just spent a little while reading process metaphysics on a Sunday night. Who are you reading, dude...? I'm very slowly working through David Ray Griffin's Unsnarling the World-Knot, and skimming around some of the papers in The Holographic Paradigm and Other Paradoxes (which is classic weird, wild stuff. Words can't really express it; Shambhala Press publishes a volume, edited by Ken Wilber, consisting of papers by the likes of Karl Pribram, David Bohm, Stanley Krippner, and Fritjof Capra, with some neo-Whiteheadeans thrown in for fun, and whole ungodly mess actually comes across as credible and entertaining. Which means that I'm slouching towards my dissertation topic, or I'm slowly losing my mind, or both. Peace, ------------------ Tom Head www.tomhead.net
Hi Tom - I suspected that we had some overlapping tastes in reading material when you mentioned some time ago that you were reading Hartshorne. I've got one of Nicholas Rescher's books (Process Philosophy) on my bedside table but I'm also into Philosophers of Process by Douglas Browning. It's my usual tact to read one or two survey texts before jumping into the primary source material (which in this case will be Whitehead). If I had to identify a Masters thesis topic right now I'd say that it would have something to do with the common points of Process Philosophy and Pragmatism. Good luck with your reading. Jack
