accreditation

"With that said, some of the worlds top universities, such as Oxford University, Cambridge University, and The University of Western Ontario have not yet received this accreditation." I am wondering who put this sentense in. This organization was called American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business until 1997. It is obviously shown that why British schools are not in. And who cares for accreditation from another country anyway 71.72.96.104 07:04, 23 July 2007 (UTC)

Uhhh What is up with that last sentence about online degrees? Does anyone think an online degree can compare with a traditional degree? Seriously... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 140.217.10.115 (talk) 22:59, 28 October 2009 (UTC)

Founding Members of AACSB

A list of founding AACSB members is listed here: http://www.aacsb.edu/media/faq.asp

"Organized in 1916, as the premier accrediting agency for bachelor's, master's and doctoral degree programs in business administration and accounting, AACSB's founding members include Columbia University, Dartmouth College, Harvard University, New York University, Northwestern University, The Ohio State University, Tulane University, University of California at Berkeley, The University of Chicago, University of Illinois, University of Nebraska, University of Pennsylvania, University of Pittsburgh, The University of Texas, University of Wisconsin-Madison, and Yale University."

The University of South Florida and University of South Florida St. Petersburg are not listed as founding members on the AACSB website. Their b-school websites say nothing about being founding members. It seems unlikely that they are founding members, because USF (Tampa) and USF St. Petersburg were founded in 1956 and 1965 respectively. AACSB was formed in 1916.

I was also unable to find evidence that Drake University was a founding AACSB member.

Can we confirm a list of founding institutions?
