An honest review of Capella University . . . and a lot more

Capella University and their unethical lying shysters would have the world believe that only one person ever complains about their for-profit school. Of course, in addition to intentionally hiding information by refusing to abide by Federal laws, they use that yet just another one of their decieptful practices. A new site has just been created that contains just the facts about Capella, including:

  1. Well over 100 complaints and negative comments about Capella University (by completely independent sources), on sites such a Yahoo! Answers, national news media forums, and many other places, by those critical of for-profit Capella University.
  2. Articles about the unethical and illegal practices of Capella University as reported by the National news media. 
  3. The names, and "WhoIs) information on the HUGE number of web domains owned by Capella University (current count appears to be approximately 160 web domains, including those operated by marketing companies hired by Capella).
  4. The grossly unethical actions and activities of Capella University, their administrators, instructors, cheerleaders, etc. 
  5. . . . and much, more.

Fact Five (July 14, 2007) - Capella Instructor, Jill Krout, Tells Plaintiff He was Fun to Have in Class and that She Learned from Him!

Contrary to lying shyster Greg Thom's claim that instructors were complaining about the student who is now suing Capella University, we're please to provide yet another one of Capella's instructors statements about how much she enjoyed having the plaintiff in her class; specifically, instructor Jill Krout told him that,

"It was fun having you in class. . . I enjoyed getting to know you during class and learning from you as well."

Once again, Capella's sleaze squad from the law firm of Drinker Biddle & Reath - hypocrite Sir Chrisy the Sissy (H. Christian L'Orange) and liar Capella Stella Fey Epling, along with Capella's shyster twins, Greg Thom and Priscilla McNulty, have openly and intentionally defied the Family Education Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and have refused to produce even a single document from Jill Krout's class. BTW, that FERPA request was made THREE YEARS ago.

Fact Four (July 13, 2007) - Capella Instructor, Amar Almasude, Complains About WebCT

Just a little more than one week (on June 29, 2004) before Capella University engaged in retaliation against a student who is now suing them, another one of his instructors, Amar Almasude, stated the following about WebCT:
"I am sorry about the trouble that you have experienced with WebCT! I had a
similar experience. . . You are certainly very welcome to study with us in
TS5514. . ."

Gosh, we can't imagine why hypocrite Sir Chrisy the Sissy (H. Christian L'Orange), Capella Stella Fey Epling, and Capella's own shyster twins, Greg Thom and Priscilla McNulty have refused to turn over this, and all other documents generated by Almasude. Once again, they have yet to produce even a single document from this instructor's class. Of course, it is very evident that the sleaze team and shyster twins are simply engaged in the obstruction of justice.

Fact Three (July 12, 2007) - Capella Instructor, Kris Luopa, States Plaintiff is "an excellent student!"

We've long noted the FACT that shyster Greg Thom, along with shyster Priscilla McNulty and the other goons at Capella University, are blatant liars. The following is another example of what an esteemed Capella University "core faculty member", Kris Luopa, told the plaintiff at the very end of the course - on June 23, 2004, just two weeks before Capella retaliated against the student for speaking out about the blatant incompetence at Capella University:

"I just wanted to drop you a note outside the discussion area to let you know that you did an excellent job on the final project. Despite the challenges you've faced this quarter, you do excellent work and you're an excellent student."

Of course Capella's sleaze team consisting of hypocrite, Sir Chrisy the Sissy (H. Christian L'Orange) and liar Capella Stella Fey Epling, along with Capella's shysters, Greg Thom and Priscilla McNulty are too unethical and intent of obstruction of justice to turn over ANY of the education records, including the above letter, required under FERPA, pertaining to Kris Luopa's class. (They have also literally refused to turn over the records from FOUR other classes).

BTW, Capella's intentional refusal to turn over records pertaining one of the lawsuits currently pending against them is also one of their unethical attempts to hide other FACTS. For example, at the time that Kris Luopa (formerly Kris Petrie) wrote the above to a student as part of her class "TS5120 - Project Management for Technology Professionals," Luopa appears to have been just 24 years old! How many real graduate schools have someone so young as a member of their "core faculty"?

Fact Two (July 11, 2007) Capella Instructor, Dr. Nancy Johnson, states Plaintiff was "delight to have in the course!"

As long as we've already posted one FACTUAL comment concerning Nancy Johnson's views on WebCT (BTW, she was the instructor for a course on software engineering entitled, "TS5130 - System Development Theory & Practice," we thought we start providing further examples demonstrate what an unethical lying shyster, Capella's "Chief Counsel" Greg Thom really is by posting actual comments from ALL of the plaintiff's instructors (with the exception of the inarticulate Charlatan, Diane Stottlemyer who only wrote a total of four (4) incomplete sentences before Capella retaliated against the plaintiff and locked him out).

Before we begin our first series of FACTS concerning what Capella University, their shysters, and other scum bags have been intentionally lying about, we thought we would reprint one of shyster Greg Thom's lies to the media (ever heard of defamation shyster Greg Thom). BTW, stating someone is an ethical sleazy shyster, like Greg Thom is, isn't defamation when it's true! Anyway, the Chronicle of Higher Education reported that,

"Greg Thome [sic], general counsel [shyster] at Capella, says Mr. La Marca's suspension was for inappropriate behavior in online courses and had nothing to do with his accusations. The lawyer says students and instructors complained that Mr. La Marca was making improper comments in class.

"I would characterize it as personal attacks, questioning the intelligence of people," Mr. Thome [sic] said. "We had complaints from other learners saying, Look at what this guy is doing."

Of course, shyster Greg Thom, along with other unethical scum bags from Capella University knows that his statement was a blatant lie. As a result, here's the first of a series of comments that the plaintiff's instructors REALLY said (BTW, no students from the plaintiff's classes complained either).

On June 8, 2004 (just one month before Capella University illegally retaliated against the plaintiff), Dr. Nancy Johnson stated that,

" I have thoroughly enjoyed your postings, and appreciate all the energy you are investing in the discussions."

Then, on June 17, 2004 (just three weeks before Capella's illegal actions), Dr. Nancy Johnson told the plaintiff,

"You are a delight to have in the course."

Finally, on July 4, 2004 - the same week the Capella illegally locked the plaintiff out of his classes, Dr. Nancy Johnson commented on the Plaintiff's final project (which was turned in long after the quarter had ended due to incompetent design of WebCT) that she had,

"read the paper, and the tiny changes needed are so minor I want you to STOP working on it. The paper content is what matters, and what you have done is superb. . . After you have recovered, let's keep talking about where to submit your paper (or a shorter version of it) for publication."


Obviously, shyster Greg Thom is a blatant liar (we'll be posting more FACTS about the truth in the coming days). We're sure that readers will be interesting in learning that Greg Thom and shyster Priscilla McNulty have literally refused, for THREE years, to turn over all of the above (and many other) documents as required by the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA). Be sure to come back tomorrow (July 12, 2007) to read what another instructor had to say about the plaintiff!
