When "Farrington" came along recently, to join Barrington and Harrington among the dreadfuls, I joked that surely Carrington and Warrington must be on the drawing boards. Today, a credential evaluation service got a transcript from Carrington University, ostensibly in Manchester, England, and with a telephone answering service number in suburban Chicago. Neither they nor I could find any evidence of it on the internet. It may simply be the latest of the "Romanian" scams. Any thoughts?

found it! I just found a Carrington University graduate here: http://www.film-and-video.com/joeowens.html . Perhaps he could provide some information. But his head looks kind of squished so there's no telling what might happen if someone asked him about his Carrington MBA. Here's another alum: http://www.millysystems.co.nz/aboutus.html So there are at least two folks with a C.U. credential. Let's try some URL's... There is a site at http://carringtonuniversity.org/ which reports that it is down "due to technical difficulties." Bingo! try this: http://carringtonuniversity.org/aboutus.html Yep, it's the Romanians, and they have corrected that awful "For those of you whom are already with us" error in the president's message (paragraph 3). Take a look at some of the file names in http://www.osac.state.or.us/oda/oregon_north_dakota/index_or.html#parkwood for possible other links to try. For example, prospective.html works and has links (at the bottom of the page) to other pages in the site. Oh, that was fun! G
it's a conjoined quintuplet The IP address for carringtonuniversity.org is 66.132.45.177, the same as for: Shepperton University ( http://www.sheppertonu.org.uk/ ) Strassford University ( http://www.Strassfordu.org.uk/ ) University of Dunham ( http://www.universityofdunham.org.uk/ ) University of Dorchester ( http://www.uoduk.co.uk/ ) the last time I looked at their IPs.
here it is. http://carringtonu.org.uk/. same IP. The pages are newer: the other ones (carringtonuniversity.org) were created 1/23/03 (the day before the FTC filed its preliminary injunction against Parkwood, etc. etc.). These were created April 15. G
