    A colleague just forwarded the CV of an applicant seeking approval of a continuing education course. He claims a Ph.D. in physiology from the University of Reddington in Rio Grande, New Jersey.

    I came up dry on a Google search.

    The red flag was that no Bachelor's degree is listed.

    Has anyone heard of this place?

    I looked at www.chea.org and could not find anything. I did find this-

    Background:
    The youngest daughter of Nathan and Regan Knight, Lucy is a child prodigy who graduated from the University of Redington as a major in computer sciences.

    I would guess it is B/S from one of those schools that advertise in USA Today that won't list their name to "protect" students from people who view onlinbe degrees as bad!

    Just a note, that bio info is for a fictional (perhaps like the school!) character.
