They never formally admitted that that was the reason, and there were
several supplemental reasons cited.  The president of the school has
transferred to a different district, the vice-president died, none of the
deans from that time are still around, . . .

If you'd like, I'll look up the Compuserve account number of the head of
the CIS department, and we can contact him for an independent opinion of
the motivation.


FWIW, I advocated for keeping the 30 year old Vista College name, so that
we could get more successful marketing of courses that involved MICROS~1
products.
