Following chatty chapters on college degrees, accreditation, and correspondence courses and other alternative ways of earning credit, this book provides one-page descriptions of 100 schools in the United States and abroad that award degrees requiring little or no residency, from unaccredited American Coastline University to accredited Western Illinois University. Nine appendixes, including, strangely enough, the index to the more comprehensive Bear's Guide to Earning College Degrees Non-Traditionally (now published by Bear's own Greenwich Univ. Pr., 1990. 13th ed.), complete the volume. Unfortunately, Bear has included some diploma mills among his 100 "good schools." Libraries that already have a copy of Bear's Guide (formerly published by Ten Speed) should stick with that book, which lists several hundred schools in shorter format.
