WGU announces the B.S. in Cloud Computing

[xicovu]

Arguing that inactive is not the same as expired is just semantics at this point. Obviously inactive is an important distinction that MS draws or they wouldn't add it to your transcript. But you're right, it's not worth going back and forth.

Your larger point about the pitfalls of the WGU degrees is fair.

I also don't want to negate the success, knowledge and accomplishments of the Western Governor's grads. I'm from Utah where WGU is based and I've seen them in all levels and roles. They even have there own "clubs" at the water cooler. I'm doing what I can to advise people on stacking the deck in their favor. Western Governor's and Excelsior seem at first glance they are for-profits (coming from a future Excelsior grad). COSC and TESU have "state" in the name so unless your from specific parts of back east it'll be easier to camouflage where your degree is from. I really could make a IT career degree plan for TESU/COSC that could be helpful for career coaching.
