FREE Online Education "We are not accredited because we do not accept the current Tuition system based on inflated Student Loans; However we will personally and individually prepare you for an alternative environmental career reality that can evolve around your own sustainable livelihood." - Dr. Drogo H. Empedocles, School Founder 2011 Provided by a Non-Profit Group of Volunteer Educators School, Academy, Institution of Higher Learning, College, University, Educational Center In ancient Rome a collegium was a club or society, a group of persons living together, under a common set of rules (con- = "together" + leg- = "law" or lego = "I choose"). The word university is derived from the Latin universitas magistrorum et scholarium, roughly meaning "community of teachers and scholars." An important idea in the definition of a university is the notion of 'academic freedom' as declared Internationally in the Magna Charta Universitatum.
