This summer, television and radio personality Glenn Beck launched his own, unaccredited, college (?) - Beck University.

According to Inside Higher Ed, Professor Stoner is slated to teach a course on charity, but instead says he plans to focus mainly on Constitutional issues. Specifically...

"... he said in a brief interview that the lectures are all focused on general issues related to the Constitution and the development of American traditions. His first talk will be about federalism, his second on the separation of powers, and the third on individual rights."
So in other words, at Beck University, you can relearn your high school social studies curriculum. Or at least Political Science 101. I have to be honest: It worries me a little bit if this is new knowledge to Glenn Beck's baccalaureates.

Also, Professor Stoner is the only actual professor (one of three, actually) teaching at Beck University. Just a thought.
