Used in print

(Edward Austin Walton, "On Education for the Interior...)

For proper accreditation of schools , teachers in any course must have a degree at_least one level above that for which the student is a candidate .

This brings us to the question of accreditation of art_schools in_general .

Only the independent art_schools , that_is , those not connected with any university or college , receive severe and separate investigation before accreditation by the various regional organizations .

It has been the custom for most universities to stretch_the_blanket of accreditation for their liberal_arts school to cover_the_shivering_body of their fine_arts department .

There will be no mitigation of these offences until all art_schools , whether independent or attached to universities have separate accreditation - as do medical_schools - by an art accreditation group such_as the `` National_Association_of_Schools_of_Art '' .
