Current News:

June 21, 2006 - One of Capella University's attorneys, H. Christian L'Orange (Sir Chrissy the Sissy) had a meltdown because he didn't get his way. Boohoo!
March 1, 2006 - An appeal regarding the lower (district) court's decisions pertaining to Capella University's frivolous countersuit has been filed with the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. More details will be provided as they are available.
November 1, 2005 - Even with additional time, Capella's "Dream Team" fails to turn over all documents with their latest response. Disgusting.
September 6, 2005 - Capella's "Dream Team" waits until the last possible moment of their extension, to respond. Their response is so hilarious that we've added a special multimedia presentation for our comment on it. Please note that our presentation will play an MP3 file. Enjoy!
August 9, 2005 - Capella University missed their first deadline to respond to the lawsuit as required by the court - they were supposed to respond by August 4, 2005 and court records now show that they've asked for "extended time to answer the complaint." Capella now has until September 6, 2005. Doesn't look like they're off to a good start. Then again, it will be impossible for them to prove that Capella did not intentionally violate all of laws mentioned in the lawsuit, along with other related laws. Guess Capella's attorney, Stella Fey Epling, of the Law Offices of Drinker Biddle & Reath, is having trouble trying to figure out how to represent Capella. Just as interesting is that Capella's Chief Shyster, Greg Thom, who won't be able to represent Capella because he's been named in the lawsuit. Oh well. . .
July 15, 2005 - Capella University was served with the lawsuit on July 15th 2005 at 12:15 P.M.
July 21, 2005 - Where's Diane Stottlemyer? The instructor at the center of the lawsuit, Diane Stottlemyer (the one who bought her "degrees" from a diploma mill and was allowed, by Capella to teach, even though they were fully aware of the situation, has suddenly disappeared off of Capella's web site. Has she been fired (at last)? If so, why haven't the others who have supported her for so long also been fired? These would include: Karen Viechnicki, Kurt Linberg, Greg Thom, and others.
July 21, 2005 - Capella's Cheerleader, Shawn Ambrose, has been unusually quiet since the lawsuit was filed (we suspect that Capella's counsel must have put a cork in him. Even so, we can't help but wonder if he has now enlisted a buddy, Robert Evans, to continue his attacks for him.
