Reliable sources anyone? – ukexpat ( talk) 22:02, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
It seems that the ODA lost a court case against someone with an unaccredited degree and was forced to list thier University as "legal for use in Oregon" as a result. http://www.ca9.uscourts.gov/datastore/opinions/2005/08/24/0335975.pdf It is surprising that this has managed to escape the article, especially when the ODA is bandied about so often on matters of legitimacy of schools. I notice that someone tried to mention this in the past, but it appears to have been whitewashed. Surely it is in the best interests of the public at large to know about this controversy and loss of a court case, given the credibility that the ODA is often afforded on wikipedia?
