UK vs USA I have seen just as many mills in the United States. In fact, I know more in the USA than in the UK system.
Re: UK vs USA I think you are correct, but perhaps the phenomenon in the UK is more recent, and therefore particularly newsworthy at the moment. Just an educated guess, I suppose. Peace, Matt
I thought the side bar was worthy of a read. DEGREE OF FICTION • The global market in fake degrees and college diplomas is estimated to be worth up to $1 billion (£580 million) a year. • George Weah, the former Chelsea footballer and Liberian presidential candidate, was found to have a degree from the fictitious Parkwood University in London.
The so-called "loophole" in British law is more like walls that are totally missing with huge signs displayed saying non-existent walls may be freely ignored.
