See article here: First accredited online school, Jones University, to shutter in 2016 - The Denver Post
For nostalgia's sake, I kind of hate to see this. Not that I'm surprised though. The school's enrollment has been poor for the past few years.
I wouldn't be surprised if Trident just absorbed most of the current students. Them naming their business school after Jones looks like the first step toward that goal.
My previous post reporting this in The Chronicle has been deleted by the thread police. As my post stated: the Chronicle article has comments from the academic community that the Denver Post article lacks. Thread Police, think before you delete.

Do you mean the post in this thread? http://www.degreeinfo.com/general-distance-learning-discussions/50096-jones-internatonal-university-closed.html It doesn't look deleted. If it was another thread, the moderator staff is not supposed to delete threads.
