A guy named Dr. John Bear is considered to probably be the most authoritative person regarding degree mills, etc. He has published several books on this subject that are available in most libraries. In fact, Bear books are used by many employers when checking to see if the degree offered by an applicant (or one that an employee is asking the company to pay for) is legitimate.

Visit your libary and the reference librarian can point you to the Bear book(s) on hand. Look up BOTH "Penn Foster" and "International Correspondence Schools" or ICS and see what Bear says about the school.
