If you want to re-upload the school logo use the following tag to insure it doesn't get deleted:
PS--you may need to go to "edit this page" to see the tag it is: { {Promotl } }
Take the spaces out between the two brackets (front and back) and spell out Promotional and the image will be safe from the bots . . .

I don't really understand why you're respond to my comments as though I've been the one making the specific edits that displease you, without paying any attention to who's making what edits. Besides, you need to work under the assuption that others are acting in good faith. --Bobak 21:16, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Good luck with the rest of it, guys, I'm sure you'll have a fully fleshed out entry here in no time. Though I don't understand why the programs listing belongs at the top instead of lower down in an academics or organisation heading. Or why the logo goes in the image area at the top of the info box, instead of in the logo area of the university info box. I thought that was where school seals went, at the top. Oh well, you two seem to know best. StevenBradford 22:49, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Sorry

message: Attempts continue to make this entry about a college into a general entry about accreditation and the relative merits of different types of accreditation. The encyclopedic thing is to link to articles about accreditation. Since that isn't acceptable to some, I've cleaned up the section and added more to give it some balance. Accreditation of any type is no guarantee of anything, and I know from experience on both sides of the lectern that Regional Accreditation doesn't automatically make for the best education for a student. It has it's strengths and weaknesses. But individual college entries are no place for enumerating them. That's for the accreditation articles.

replies: text: I put the accreditation information back it is specific to all nationally accredited schools, including Collins and it is not a consumer guide, I put in the references to back up the information, if you wish to remove that's fine, however, the proviso should stay.

text: I'm simply stating facts which are well supported by sources. Many regionally accredited schools do not accept nationally accredited schools, that's a fact. The most prominent reason, that THEY give, is that the courses at nationally accredited schools are more vocational or career in nature and thus are not suitable to more academically inclined institutions. Whether that is true or not, that's the way it is, a fact. The article does not state that regional accreditation is better than national accreditation though one can imply that it is different. Whether or not accreditation is complicated or not does not change the fact, as stated, that many regionally accredited schools will not accept nationally accredited credits which is all the passage states. The text does not state that regional accreditation is better than national accreditation, nor does it pursue an agenda or go into the complexities of accreditation. It states a simple fact, which is well sourced, and it is important that readers be made aware of this fact.Mysteryquest (talk) 01:11, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fixes to accredidation 

message: This school no longer appears to be accredited. The reflink to "ACCSCT" now redirects to ACCSC.org  and I cannot find Collins College listed on the ACCSC website. Anyone else have more information? Henrymrx (t·c) 19:35, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  Accredidation 

message: I just made edits to this page. None of the five references that were on it had active links. Here is one of the few sources I found:
Arizona Private School Association Names Collins College 2012 School of the Year
It's a press release from Collins College. There are a few additional articles on Collins College in the paid Arizona Republic archives. 
According to the school's website it is no longer accepting students and apparently hasn't been since 2012. There is just very little on this school available online. It's kind of shocking. Utahredrock (talk) 06:31, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
thread_title: Very little information on Collins College

message: I discovered some good source material on Collins College in the article history that had been deleted. All references still work and one report in particular that is referenced provides detailed info on Collins College. The section revolves around controversies with CEC, the parent company, but all have connections directly to Collins. I restored the deleted section--Utahredrock (talk) 07:18, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
