[Vision2020] Highly Prestigious, Non-Accredited

[Ron Force]

Why pay, when a diploma can be yours for the cost of a print-out?

The General Delivery University website was reviewed in the April edition of
Internet Underground. Here's what IU had to say:

"Here's chance to stick it to The Man. Why pay thousands of dollars for an
education when all you really need is the diploma? General Delivery
University will let you download the degree of your choice from a law or
medical degree to a "School of Hard Knocks" certificate. What does General
Delivery U charge for this experience? Not a dime. If you've got the
capability to download, the diploma is yours to do with as you see fit. Each
discipline, such as Engineering and Education, has specific schools from
which you may receive your diploma--for example, elevator and toy assembly
or study hall and sex education. The diplomas cost netizens nothing, but a
simulated parchment version costs $6.95"

For those interested in the School of Divinity:

SCHOOL OF DIVINITY

The General Delivery University School of Divinity is affiliated with the
First Church of Generic Beliefs. The First Church of Generic Beliefs is
committed to ending religious-based conflict by merging the best of all
known religions into one generic religion that everyone can belong to. The
First Church of Generic Beliefs is in the process of completing its first
important religious document, which is a "best of" compilation from the Old
Testament, the New Testament, the Koran, and other important religious
works. Due to potential disagreement over the selection of materials for
this document, the authors have insisted on remaining anonymous.

People who wish to obtain a Doctor of Divinity Degree from GDU merely have
to send $25 by money order or cashier's check, made payable to the GDU.

GENERIC RELIGIOUS STUDIES PROGRAM

where the wicked are punished for their misdeeds. Various forms of Hell will
be studied, ranging from Dante's Inferno to having to watch a shopping
channel on cable tv. Fee: Your soul.

GENREL 103: COMMUNICATIONS FROM GOD Most religions are centered around
communications from God, which generally focus on individuals who then must

the origin of gender conflict. Fee: $50.00.
