Courier-Journal: U of L could face sanctions over one-semester Ph.D.

By awarding a doctoral degree to a student enrolled for only one semester, the University of Louisville violated an accrediting agency’s rules and could face sanctions, the agency’s president said yesterday.
The Commission on Colleges of the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools, which accredits schools in 11 Southern states, including Kentucky, requires candidates for graduate degrees to earn the majority of their credits at the university awarding the degree.
