Wow - a new ACCREDITATION OPPORTUNITY for Work World University and School via
Middle States' Commission on Higher Education (MSCHE), post their MSCHE "Navigating Follow-Up Reports and Follow-Up Visits" webinar
Dear Kim and Larry, All,
Nice to talk yesterday, Larry, and did I hear you say on the phone, and repeating or echoing Kim ... to figure out what Kim would do to accredit World Univ & Sch with MSCHE? Wow! :)
What does it mean to be accredited by Middle States?
Middle States accreditation is an expression of confidence in an institution's mission and goals, its performance, and its resources. An institution is accredited when the educational community has verified that its goals are achieved through self-regulation and peer review.
Standards - Middle States Commission on Higher Education
A slightly different process from WASC senior and BPPE in CA, here is an overview - https://www.msche.org/ accreditation/
To begin the process of applying for Candidate for Accreditation status with MSCHE, please contact applicationprocess@ msche.org.
And it looks like the first deadline would be December 1 per the - . Might you be able to initiate the process soon, Kim, and with your new WUaS email address - claudiakimviehland@ worlduniversityandschool.org ?
I have some perspectives on the licensing and accreditation process, since ~2013 with WASC senior, many of which are being newly approached post coronavirus pandemic by many accreditation agencies.
How best for CC-4 OCW.MIT.EDU -CENTRIC wiki World Univ & Sch to develop # 1 ranking in various rating as we develop our WUAS accreditation papers, planning, and "self-study," - https://www.msche.org/ accreditation/self-study- guide/ - which seems to be an integral part of MSCHE process. Could a physical site visit or two occur even at your home on N Negley in Pittsburgh, as a kind of WUaS office perhaps, and see the questions I asked below.
Here below are some of the questions I asked at the MSCHE meeting on ~ 9/12/22 - MSCHE Events <events@msche.org>
Thank you.
Sincerely, Scott
Since CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric World University and School is planning to be exclusively online, physical site visits by accreditors might not be relevant, would physical site visits be transposed to accreditors visiting the World Univ and Sch Web platforms like CC-4 MIT AND the CC-4 licensed "CS First with Google at World University and School" course learning the Scratch programming language - and with students studying from home, including a WUaS Home Robotics' track eg in a WUAS undergrad engineering major, and post pandemic? How to possibly navigate reporting in these regards? Thank you. Scott GK MacLeod, sgkmacleod@ worlduniversityandschool.org ~
Thank you, Dr. Hardin, and Dr. Peavey, - that physical offices, if there’s no physical campus, too would be visited with MSCHE site visits for virtual Universities (including presumably personal homes, I’m assuming). Thank you so much for this helpful information regarding new developments in Distance Education. Thanks.

due to reimbursement focus
One of the challenges for WUaS in navigating accreditation agency WASC SENIOR and BPPE in California (where I met with a WASC VP, Dick Osborne, in 2013, and attended a state of California licensing BPPE workshop in San Jose CA Feb 2019) was the Site Visiting requirements, pre Coronavirus Meme Pandemic and self-quarantine, with no WUaS physical campuses. Since CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric World University and School is planning to be exclusively online, 1) physical site visits by accreditors would not be relevant, as would 2) the accreditation costs for people visiting any WUaS 'physical school'. One question I'd like to ask today if possible is what might be different with Middle States' Commission on Higher Education. Would physical site visits be transposed to accreditors visiting the World Univ and Sch Web platforms like CC-4 MIT AND CA First with Google at World University and School - and with students studying from home, including a WUaS Home Robotics' track eg in a WUAS undergrad engineering major, and post pandemic?

Dear Kim and Larry,
Greetings, and how are you? I created a new WUaS email address for you, Kim! :)
Am at the Bakery Square near to Google "Co-Working Space" outside, and not yet in a Google cubicle, AND with wifi on laptop access, have created 3 different stickers for World Univ & Sch new outreach (potentially at Shady Side Academy HomeComing on October 14 15 16, and even at the Ligonier Highland Games this Saturday, September 17, and when I'm at laptop in public space, possibly for the back of my laptop computer. :) (It took about 30 minutes to walk to Bakery Square from 201 East End Ave, and through nice neighborhoods making discoveries along the way:))
Thanks Larry for saying I could come over to print these stickers. These are a new start for World Univ & Sch outreach, after quite a few years (and could head in the professional direction with time) :)
Could I possibly come by your place at 2 or 3pm to print these, and to talk further, please? Will call, and thank you!
More about accreditation with MSCHE, Kim, in another email soon - and perhaps we can talk about this when I come over, and if you're home..
Kind regard & sincerely,
Scott

Greetings! Hoping you feel better soon, Larry, with the bug (a bad cold or virus) I heard in your voice yesterday and today! Per your words just now, it looks like WUaS is in the process of MOVING OFFICES, from POB 442 Canyon CA 94516 to your 1401 N Negley Ave Pittsburgh PA 15206! (I hope all the mail since August 1which is on hold in the CANYON PO box 442 is in good shape for when I hope to pick it up on Monday September 26 and then put in a forwarding request to 1401 N Negley Ave Pittsburgh PA newly safe and Regarding the Asylum journey across the country and in calling for abolition of the illegal drug and sex industries internationally and their latent networks of violence).
Seeking to email out Saturday's 9/17/22 open WUaS Monthly Business Meeting Agenda and News, today, Thursday 9/15, and since you're ill, Larry, and WUaS is changing offices, and nothing has changed on the 2 financial reports for last month, I'll add this and a note about this too.
The World Univ and Sch Monthly Business Meeting meets at 12 noon on Saturday 9/17 is conducted loosely in the manner of Quakers, and is only an hour long, and here is the video call link for this -

Meeting ID: 791 4640 4104
Passcode: PSf7Sd
I'm planning to head to the (Scottish) Ligonier Highland Games on Saturday, and it looks like the Ligonier Valley Public library is only 3 miles away and open on Saturdays at noon. Larry will you join the video chat, or shall I call you as usual? Anyone else can join us for the open WUAS Monthly Business Meeting as well.
(BACK BURNER QUESTION - not relevant at this time - since I'm planning to begin to move the WUaS offices to your house, and in general send personal mail to 210 East End Avenue Pittsburgh PA for the time being ... re what I had written a few days ago -
"On a related note for WUaS finance too -
which WUaS addresses to change to Pittsburgh, and which to keep in California if I could find my way back to living there in a few months, or at the end of July 2023, or in between if it opened, and if I could get this 3 dwelling house on about 1.5 acres on a ridge for a song ... to Canyon 94516 and to the WUaS / my PO Box 442 (which is rural so there's no home delivery to the same place of 670 or 86 Ridgecrest Road place there up on the ridge, I wonder.
And further on a personal note, and FYI, and thinking in writing, having changed my GEICO car insurance from CA to Pgh last Friday 9/10/22, to 210 East End Avenue, am saving about $680 PER YEAR NOW
since in PA, CAR INSURANCE NOW COSTS me $332 per year for 'full tort' coverage (better than CA's "limited tort" equivalent coverage re PA
and in CA for 6 months, car insurance cost me on
05/05/22 GEICO *AUTO 800-841-3000 DC 490.38 (from Credit card statement)
So
$980 per year for "limited tort" similar in CA
My CA license plates have time on them
IN CHANGING my car registration and driver's license in PA ..
This GEICO car insurance change saves me about $680 PER YEAR in car insurance - wow!"
FURTHER, and recently -
I went into the PA Department of Motor Vehicles on Smithfield St Pittsburgh PA after going to the AAA office in East Liberty Pittsburgh PA for information about car stuff. Turns out from DMV, getting license before transfer of car registration, that I need CA driver license, MA Birth Certificate or US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT Passport, and 2 pieces of mail to me GORDON K MacLeod (not Scott like my lease agreement says) with the 210 East End Avenue Pittsburgh PA address on it ... And it's 60 to get the new Driver's license that will allow flying on air planes. Because I think my US Passport was stolen by the criminal mentally ill former landlord in Canyon 94516, and my birth certificate may be in a file in CA until at least M 9/26/22, I'm planning to request a new birth certificate from Massachusetts to get my new PA driver's license allowing me to transfer the car title to PA. Hoping the GEICO insurance cards I asked to be mailed to 210 East End Avenue Pittsburgh PA and either my PNC BANK ACCOUNT or Credit card address change to PA will suffice and be addressed to Gordon MacLeod too. These processes take time!) But good ID documents can be invaluable.
SO ...
Seeking to transfer the WUaS 3 legal entities to your 1401 N. Negley address, Larry and Kim ... and explore the Middle States' Commission on Higher Education MSCHE accreditation process with your address too. Thank you.

Scott

Kim, and Larry, Co-Working Space friends,
I've created one further simple template of these WUaS 'stickers' - attached newly in this thread - or WUaS info source for outreach ... (and MSCHE Middle States' Commission on Higher Education could look at our WUaS outreach material in these regards too ... and also regarding their 'self-study' process ... and you both being MIT Alum could inform some of these accreditation questions with them further ... )
Can't seem to upload these to this blog post - https://scott-macleod. blogspot.com/2022/09/pt-lobos- wow-new-accreditation.html - from yesterday.
(on my computer as templates and files ready for printing)

One big question I have about these stickers on Avery 3 1/3 x 4 mailing labels is adding the CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric URL (different from the MIt name) ... what do you think?
See you potentially tomorrow to print some of these, and I have two packages of Avery labels in the car. ...
What do you think? And how are you feeling, Larry? And Kim are you game to focus on this MSCHE accreditation process and potentially to spear head accrediting CC-4 ocw.mit.edu -centric, wiki World Univ & Sch with them?
Sincerely,
Scott
