Adam Smith University
Adam Smith University (also known as Adam Smith University of Liberia and École Supérieure Universitaire Adam Smith) is an unaccredited〔 private distance learning university founded in 1991 by Donald Grunewald, who is still its president. Grunewald, a onetime president of Mercy College, was reported in 2004 to be a business professor at Iona College.〔(Psst. Wanna Buy a Ph.D.? ) ''Chronicle for Higher Education'' by Thomas Bartlett and Scott Smallwood, June 25, 2004〕 The university espouses the principle of independence from state control, believing that such control prevents it from furthering its mission.〔
==History==
John Bear states that Adam Smith University has been located in Hawaii, Louisiana, Montana, and South Dakota in the past.〔''Bears' Guide to Earning Degrees by Distance Learning'', by John B. Bear, Ph.D. and Mariah P. Bear, M.A., 15th Edition, ISBN 1-58008-431-1〕 However, in 2004 the ''Chronicle of Higher Education'' reported that Grunewald had always run the university from his home in Connecticut,〔 and throughout its history it has used an office address in a number of different United States states. The addresses moved as the states have successively tightened standards for degree-granting institutions that do not seek recognized accreditation.〔 These states have included Hawaii, Louisiana, Montana, and South Dakota.〔 Adam Smith's current American mailing address is a private mail box in Garapan on Saipan in the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. commonwealth.〔 The website of Training and Advanced Studies in Management and Communications, Ltd., an education business in India that claims affiliation with Adam Smith University, states that Adam Smith is now based in Saipan.〔(Training and Advanced Studies in Management and Communications, Ltd. website ) (accessed August 23, 2007)〕 Adam Smith University also asserts the establishment of a French unit called École Supérieure Universitaire Adam Smith, which offers academic degrees for work experience.〔(École Supérieure Universitaire Adam Smith ) (page on the Adam Smith University website; accessed August 23, 2007)〕
According to the university, it has been accredited by the Liberian Ministry of Education since 1995, well before the most recent conflicts, and was accredited as a result of an act of the Liberian legislature.〔〔 The institution makes no statement suggesting that it has a physical campus.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.adamsmith.edu/campus.html )〕
