#Law School Truth Center: Touro Brings Class-Action Against Diploma Mill Law School

Touro Brings Class-Action Against Diploma Mill Law School

The degrees, Touro says, are worthless. Obviously! This damages Touro, who only "admits students in accordance with its mission of educating future attorney [sic - is there one per class?] who will be qualified, competent, and ethical." Novus, on the other hand, is a California corporation that allegedly set up in the Marshall Islands and represented itself as being international when it was not. Both Texas and Oregon have deemed the degrees illegal/unauthorized, whereas Touro is legal in both. Do you see the difference, scambloggers?!

Novus does not apprise the consumer of these facts, and in instead [sic], refers to its degress as "prestigious." [par. 60]

Novus's business model in [sic] predicated entirely upon falsehoods, misstatements, half-truths, and hyperbole. [par. 64]

As opposed to mostly predicated on falsehoods, misstatements, half-truths, and hyperbole.

Touro claims that Novvus claims accreditation under Marshall Islands law when it states that it confers degrees on the "power of the Novus University of the Marshall Islands." More representations that put Touro's panties in a bunch:

"Some of the best minds of our nation have law degress that did not require an LSAT, and you will rank among them with your own JD degree." [par. 73(i).]

Touro College and its affiliates around the country are an absolute travesty of higher education. Its hilarious they have a non profit status, when they are probably one of the most profitable universities in the world. Their previous President Bernard Lander earned $4 million in his final year, more than the Presidents of Harvard, Yale, Princeton, and Stanford combined.

Touro Law school does not even have a ranking in US News, which has the most respected and definitive ranking of American law schools.

The entire Touro system seems to act more like a corporation than a institution of teaching. I say buyer beware when it comes to Touro.
