a degree mill

Yes, aka Irish International University which used to be represented by a set of rather unpleasant London lawyers. I didn’t know Prof Kempe, Graf von Roit zu Hoya, Laird of Glencairn, etc and linked to other interesting universities was still active.

 

I saw his name again quite recently, on a "school" site somehow associated with Isles - forget the name. I'll look it up when I have a chance. I remember him from years back -- something to do with an "invention" of his - said to be cancer-curing. Odd - looked exactly like an Ipod, IIRC.

Blitzenjohann, der Einsiedler der Blues. (Lightnin' John, the Blues Hermit). Pfalzgraf, Landgraf, Markgraf und plain ol' Graf zu Googleberg.

 

And wasn't our Nigerian friend, Usman Ali Awheela both a Doctoral grad and a professor there?

 

Wow! "His Royal Highness Hans Ibn Sina Al Kempe Prof. Dr. Joachim AL-Kempe sa Iligan-Pilimpinas alias Prof. Dr. Hans J. Kempe (VEN) Graf von Roit zu Hoya, alias Hans Laird of Glencairn..."
Family portrait - Hans and his wife: "Her Royal Highness Queen Salvacion Legaspi AL-Kempe sa Iligan (Queen of Mindanao). Wonder what Pres. Duterte makes of that title of hers?

Quite a page on Kempe here - tells it like it is. Minces no words. https://www.psiram.com/de/index.php/Hans_Joachim_Kempe

BTW - "Hans Ibn Sina al Kempe" - OML! For those who may not have heard of him, Ibn Sina was one of the greatest physicians and thinkers who ever lived. 980 -1037. Known as Avicenna in English.

I think this is basically the same story, in English, as the German site I referenced above: http://diplomacon.blogspot.ca/2009/01/hans-joachim-kempe-international.html

 

I love - and have never forgotten - an old Louisiana swamp-pop hit from the fifties that I first heard when it was new: "This Should go on Forever." I was 16 when I saw Rod Bernard perform it on American Bandstand in 1959. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/This_Should_Gn_Forever

Well, perhaps Isles International shouldn't go on forever, but it does. Here's an article 12 hours old: https://www.buzz.ie/news/dublin-based-fake-university-duping-foreign-students-283307

I remember also that QAC (Quality Assurance Commission) a UK "accreditor" is owned by the same person as Isles International. If it walks like a duck, QACS like a duck, etc... I'm pretty sure it was a QAC-accredited "school" site where I last saw Hans Kempe's name. QAC is here: www-dot-qac-dash-uk-dot-org

 

Irish University Business School, not Irish International University, but it's pretty much the same thing in my opinion.

 

Indeed. The owner of Irish University Business School was at one time Honorary Chancellor of Irish International University. A - umm, former accountant, I see. His story here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Wooller
