Why Trident's Accreditation is NOT in Jeopardy

What I find really curious about this is that the letter is implying that the only issue WASC has is a relatively minor issue in coding and categorizing credits resulting in some students not completing requirements imposed as part of WASC's accreditation standards.

Were this the whole story, I would think it would be WASC saying "Hey, we identified this, you need to fix it", the school going "Oh, oops! That's a complete oversight, and we'll fix it immediately."

I could imagine that this sort of administrative oversight could happen pretty easily when schools are combined, students transferred between schools, etc. and I can't imagine that it would be enough to get a school on probation, let alone all the way down the path to "show cause."

So something seems a little amiss here.

According to the link that Steve F. posted from Inside Higher Ed - Trident knew about the issue - but did not notify WASC:

This is definitely some news an existing student does not like to hear.
