    The domain registration address is in Murfreesboro, Tennesee, but the phone is in Spokane, Washington, whence comes lots and lots of fake stuff. Seborga recognition as well.

    Law'd ha' mercy!

    "Principato di Seborga" in the news - again!

    All together, now:

    They've got a mill
    The shills got their mills
    All of Seborga's chill'un got a mill
    When a shill gets to mill haven gonna put on his shoes
    And walk all over mill haven!
    Right into Interpol & FBI's mill trap bags!

    :)

    Thanks.

    School motto?

    One guess; it STARTS with, "You have..."

    Seborga, part of the Places of knowledge and teaching

    Remarkably, there are no less than 15 distance education universities in tiny Seborga, according to the local Dept. of Education. But perhaps this is not so surprising, in light of Seborga's rich academic heritage:
    Even more remarkable is the fact that at least 10 of the Seborga universities are all located within the exact same building, at Via Miranda 3. We can only imagine the concentrated intellectual energy!

    Looks like the 404-fairy paid them a visit. Nowt there now apart from an open directory.

    I can't imagine what they named the college after other than the general public's vague familiarity with the Miranda warnings. Maybe they figured people would associate that name generally with the concept of justice or law. I don't know, maybe I'm overthinking, it's just a name likely pulled out of a hat.

    But, if it was named after Ernesto Miranda in any way, that would mean that they named the "university" after a thief who managed to loophole his way out of conviction!

    How very appropriate.


    BTW: the link no longer works and I can't pull up a thing. Perhaps crashed-and-burned in the wake of the federal investigation into these crooks?

    State of Oregon website says they're owned by the SRU gang:

    Name: Miranda International University

    Location: Tennesee, Washington, Seborga (Italy)

    Status: Degree mill, owned by the owners of the fraudulent St. Regis University.

    Miranda University is on Via Miranda, of course

    It appears to be named after its street address: Miranda University is located at 3 Via Miranda in Seborga. In fact, it is one of 10 distance universities located at this same address, according to the Seborga Education Dept. They all have different "suites". I wouldn't be terribly surprised if 3 Via Miranda is the Seborga equivalent of Mail Boxes Etc., and if the different "suites" are really box numbers.

    Thanks for the info. Perhaps the street itself was named after the late Mr. Miranda.

    I still find it a deliciously ironic name for a mill.

    I thought Miranda was a rapist.

    Yes, he was.

    And also armed robbery and a host of other charges. I just used the one--"thief"--that was most convenient to my analogy of the mill operator, but the crime you brought up also describes what nill operators do to "students" and the unsuspecting companies that hire those with mill "qualifications". Perhaps yours is better.

    Re: registrant

    I had suspected a possible Randock relationship even before your post, simply because a "James Monroe International University" was one of the other 9 universities at Via Miranda 3. Wouldn't surprise me if all of them are connected somehow.
