regulations are supposed to help people filter out the bad- but in the process, it catches the "innocent" as well. Not every college /university / school needs the red tape or enormous hoops and costs associated with the (optional) regional accreditation. It's sort of the public's fault for lumping all postsecondary education into one basket (school, college, university) and then being confused or angry when it all doesn't meet the same standard. RA is great for universities and necessary for public CCs that rely on seamless transfer to state colleges/universities, but beyond that, it's a solution looking for a problem.
