That is based on the false assumption that quality is all they are after from us. Their objective is control. Accrediting associations are educational unions. They do not guarantee quality, but they do guarantee equality by the loss of autonomy and individuality. Christian educators must fear this, just as they fear state-mandated licensure and certification.
Accreditation is voluntary.
The law doesn't not require it. Yet there is a mood among certain Christian educators to seek it because not to have it is to be different. Accreditation most certainly makes the educational road smoother for a Christian school. It facilitates the transfer of credits and allows government subsidy to flow freely to our institutions in the form of student loans, but the price for that is enslavement and secularization of our schools. Recently, at the request of some pastors-educators, a meeting was called at Bob Jones University to discuss the subject of accreditation.
