Dear MIT President Rafael Reif, and MIT President-elect Sally Kornbluth,
Greetings from CC-4 MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School, planned in ~200 countries as major online free-to-students' degree granting universities, in these countries' main languages, and in each of all 7,151 known living languages as wiki schools for free people-to-people open teaching and learning - https://wiki.
As World University and School proceeds with seeking to become accredited by Middle States' Commission on Higher Education (with offices in the greater Philadelphia PA area), and licensed by a related university licensing organization, I'm writing to inquire at this stage of licensing and accreditation about possible co-accrediting with MIT itself (where MIT is accredited by the New England Commission of Higher Education).
While as president of MIT OCW-centric wiki World University and School, I think that Creative Commons' 4 licensing of CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare (which allows for 1. sharing MIT OCW, 2. adapting it, 3. but non-commercially) is what makes it possible for MIT OCW-centric World University and School to build and grow potentially to offer free-to-students' online Bachelor, PhD, Law, MD and IB high school, or similar, WUaS degrees, and that this legally is the extent of our MIT-WUaS relationship, I'm writing to inquire with you MIT President Rafael Reif and MIT President-elect Sally Kornbluth - and in this time of MIT presidential transition - about new possibilities of open co-accreditation, as well as to further grow our communication.
Would it be possible for World University and School to co-accredit with MIT?
All the best,
- Scott GK MacLeod

Dear Universitians, Sri Lanka World Univ & Sch, Larry, All,
Thanks, Sri Lanka WUaS (Rifai in Sri Lanka at <SriLanka@
While I think again that the Creative Commons' 4 licensing of CC-4 MIT OpenCourseWare (which allows WUaS or anyone to 1. share 2. adapt 3. but non-commercially) is what makes it possible for World University and School to build on MIT OCW (in 7 languages presently), and grow with this, and that this is the extent legally of our relationship, I think inquiring with MIT President Rafael Reif and MIT President-elect Nancy Kornbluth, and at this time of MIT presidential transition, could open new possibilities and possibly different kinds of accreditation possibilities as well as further grow out MIT-WUaS communication. Thank you.
Here's a draft of my email to these 2 current MIT presidents:
