Germane to funds, I am recently in receipt of material from George Seidler suggesting an alternative in certifications and carrying with it the news that Sequoia University1 would like to authorize associates to give certain courses. With all due respect to Sequoia University and the project, I have to hand legal opinion that this protection will not stay the heavy threat when levelled. I think we have a better idea and I think Sequoia University has its role and will eventually be woven through the woof and warp of what we are doing. It happens that I have under preparation summaries of psychology, psychoanalysis and so forth which your certification fees are going to finance. Now just why a large portion of these certification fees should go to Sequoia University, I am not quite sure. I do know that if a large portion of them do go to Sequoia University, I will be strapped down financially in the preparation of this material and, believe me, material costs money. I estimate that the tapes you play cost about $800 an hour. That might be a shock to you, but it is a sober fact. It isn’t because I spend money like water, it’s because those tapes are made only after a great deal of outlay in terms of testing and in terms of organization and material; and, even then, it is very cheap investigation. If this condensation of general semantics,   psychoanalysis, psychology, electronic brains, etc. were being done by Sequoia University, I could see some point in this.2

Notes

  1. Wikipedia: Sequoia University. “Sequoia University was an unaccredited higher education institution in Los Angeles, California which acquired a reputation as a prolific “degree mill” selling degree certificates. Although it was shut down in 1984 by a court order, it is most notable today as the institution from which L. Ron Hubbard obtained an honorary “Doctorate of Philosophy” in the 1950s.” ↩
