| Insistence of IOND University to Office of Consumer Protecion,
D.C.C.A. 1. This IOND University spent much money to the State of Hawaii, but obtained no profit whatsoever. This IOND University was established on Apr. 12, 1999, as a non-profit educational organization, and ever since we have spent a total of 700,000 dollars in the State of Hawaii for its maintaining, managing and administrating up until now, but getting none of money, even a cent from the State of Hawaii and this is attributable to the provisions of the HRS in the State Law of Hawaii causing unbelievable discrimination in the matter of laws and administration in the course of managing and administrating the non-accredited university such as ours. For instance, the following No.2 may be taken up to prove it. 2. Under the Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS),no none-accredited universities may do their activities. because they are required by HRS446E-2 (a) to state to the effect that they are not accredited by any of the organizations or organs recognized by the federal government ministry of education, that the credits obtained are not acceptable by other universities or that no employment is guaranteed. It all depends on each university or firms to evaluate the credits and to decide whether the credits are acceptable or not, irrespective of accreditation. It is not the government nor law that decides these matters. HRS, however, enjoins only the non-accredited universities to clearly state to the said effect in their pamphlets and in any other promotional leaflets and in this regard, may be said to violate the US Common Law in the point that education shall be free of any controls by the government or laws. Such being the case, there has been unlawful discrimination on the non-accredited universities. Furthermore, a university registered lawfully in the State of Hawaii, it is abandoned flatly as being said “it has nothing to do with the State of Hawaii ” by 446E-5(a). If it is true that the state of Hawaii has nothing to do with it, there shouldn’t have been HRS enacted and now all the present stipulations of it should be made invalid. 446E-5(a) prohibits such non-accredited universities from collecting money from their students. The state universities may be alright as they are tax-funded, but other universities, whether accredited or non-accredited, cannot be managed unless paid by the students. In this connection, HRS seems to say “any non-accredited university should collapse.” In complete compliance with HRS provisions, how this IOND University and other non-accredited could recruit their students, this IOND University having been unable to collect any money from any student, as there have been no students applying for entrance. Namely,under HRS it is impossible for any non-accredited university to manage and to perform its activities. 3. Four educational concepts and struggle for three points of discrimination. The educational concepts of this IOND University may be summarized and said to be a education of human character, of enlightenment, of learning from great men and examining and evaluating the learning system levels, based on which this IOND University has been engaged its three struggles including racial discrimination, gender discrimination and educational background discrimination. The educational background discrimination is that the government urges it by discriminating by laws the graduates from high school graduates, first-class universities from those otherwise and accredited universities from others. Regarding all the universities and their evaluations、it is each of the universities and enterprises or even individuals that determine them. It is not the government nor the laws that determine them. Actually, however, what is needed in the living society is those of actual ability, of excellent accomplishments and of noble character. 4. Higher education ought to be based on freedom and independent from the government. America has been developing since its declaration of independence as a country of democracy and freedom, as basically prompted by the higher education on a freedom basis and various types of higher educating organs and institutes completely separated from the government. As a result, America enjoys its most advanced education of the whole world. While on the other hand, in such countries as North Korea and Iran there has been no advancement in learning because their higher education is narrowly restricted by the government or by the laws. A higher education organs or institutes completely free from the government restriction, may be exposed to its bankruptcy in the worst case since it is not supported financially by the government. A completely free society is the one where there is such risk willingly accepted as going bankrupt at the compensation of the freedom. This IOND University is one of the higher educating institutes in opposition to the government of such a country as North Korea and the laws as well as the sense of value that stands against such independence. 5. Non-accredited universities including IOND University have been suffering from disadvantages through unreasonably discriminated owing to HRS. Because of the HRS provisions enacted immediately after this IOND University was established, the university has been not only under illegal disadvantage,but prevented from doing its free school management and educational activities. Should the Hawaii State Government intend to collapse non-accredited universities, it shouldn’t have approved registration of such universities in the first place. After permitting such registration of a non-accredited university, it has discriminated it unlawfully under HRS just simply because it is not accredited, thus prevented from doing its free school management and educational activities. Furthermore, it discriminates those people awarded the academic degree from non-accredited university. This HRS at present is a bad law because it deprives freedom of education, thus promoting the educational background discriminations. This IOND University will intend to continue its struggling against such unacceptable laws until it disappears. In spite of the US Common Law, stating education shall not be controlled or ruled by the government or laws, the Hawaii state government , has been insisting that the academic degree or educational backgrounds be restricted by the government or laws in its “government controlling” idea, thus discriminating the university management and educational activities according to its accreditation or non-accreditation. Under such conditions as this，it is impossible to perform truly free higher education, completely free from the government. Actually,this IOND University has been unable to perform its acts. For conclusion, this university insists on the illegality and unfairness of HRS446E-2(a), 446E-5(a) and 446E-5(e). The present situation caused by this HRS, is not only violating the freedom and independence of higher education of America, but also illegally discriminating those awarded academic degree from non-accredited university, causing them much disadvantages. |
| IOND University,established in 1999, is a non-profit educational organization,
identical to U.S. Harvard University,the oldest university in America,
and is awarded the privilege of permanent tax exemption. |

IOND UNIVERSITY IS NOT ACCREDITED BY AN ACCREDITING AGENCY RECOGNIZED BY
THE UNITED STATES SECRETARY OF EDUCATION | |
|
Note: In the United States, many licensing authorities require accredited degrees as the basis for eligibility for licensing. In some cases, accredited colleges may not accept for transfer courses and degrees completed at unaccredited colleges and some employers may require an accredited degree as a basis for eligibility for employment. Pursuant to Hawaii law, we are prohibited from issuing degrees unless, during each academic year in which a student is enrolled, at least 25 students are enrolled in Hawaii. Therefore, there can be no assurance that IOND University can issue degrees, as degree issuance will be subject to continuing compliance with such requirement. |
| Under no circumstances should, IOND University believes, higher education and its relevant activities be controlled in any form by the government or its accredited organs. IOND University has been striving to keep the higher education completely free and independent in coping with the power against sucｈ freedom. |

to those of America and Europe" Extracted from “Problematic points of Japanese Constitution"
written by Dr. Naoki Komuro. |

It is a criminal act of defamation or obstruction of business to dispatch one-sidedly any false or faked information, not knowing anything about the real state of IOND University's educational activities and academic researches. Against IOND University and its personnel that have been in compliance with the American historical tradition, Common Law, its Constitution and Hawaii State Law, there have been deliberately and repeatedly such crimes committed as business obstruction and defamation. Actually, there has been false or faked information alleged among U.S. Governmental offices and organs. The following persons are the chronic liars, habitual offenders and degenerate leftists, all affirming crimes; 1. Shigeru Kojima, 2. Masaki Kitou, 3. Takashi Yamaguchi, 4. Kengo Hashizume, 5. Toshihiro Yoshimoto, 6. Nobuo Sakiyama, 7. Hironari Noda, 8.The persons concerned. Included in these people are two ex-convicts, one with two previous convictions of extortion and the other with three of assault. They are planning only to make money by concretely organizing system of members on a monthly so-much-pay basis for collecting customers for consulting by abusing not only IOND University but other enterprises and individuals. This harmful propaganda may have impressed innocent people that they are based on the leftists' principles in opposition to strengthening of the U.S.-Japan Alliance and to infant pornography prohibition law and revision of Japanese Constitution. However, their true intention in a series of their activities is just moneymaking and self-protection. It should be noted that IOND University has appealed to the law, civil and criminal ,the persons that had long kept the faked information about IOND University through the internet. As a result, we won the cases and were paid a compensation of nearly a million yen for the crimes. Furthermore, There is a section in the State of Oregon, USA, called O.D.A. (Office of Degree Authorization) and through its web-site, information is dispatched about universities in U.S.A. However, its information is capricious because it is legally groundless and cannot be proved to be true. IOND University has sent the O.D.A. a series of questions as to “ How do you keep the correctness of the information that it dispatches? ” “ Who is in charge of O.D.A. ? ” “ How do you collect and analyze the information and can you say the information is correct regarding IOND University ? ” “we believe it is all faked at least as long as IOND University is concerned. This O.D.A.’s stances are likened to a private person making fun of dispatching hokum as he pleases. We have so far into received any reply to any of the questions and comments said above. Such being the case, it is rather illegal far from being irresponsible, and Therefore we have sent O.D.A our request to check the information control system. It seems that the person in charge of O.D.A. never knows the American Common Law. May we take the liberty of asking all the personnel related to IOND University not to be deceived by these anti-social groups ? When such malevolent activities are noticed, please inform us of the matter at the Legal section of IOND University,Tokyo. Thank you. |
Message from the President
|
I would simply like to explain our education principles
to people who would like to join IOND University. We offer an alternative
education experience that overcomes the obstacles of the traditional education
system. Under the present university system, an uniform education is dispensed
where many students are crammed into large lecture rooms and students
are given one-sided lectures by professors. This system also attaches
high importance to having a good memory. Because of this situation, many
students tend to lose their eagerness for learning. Furthermore, in Japan
there is a strong tendency to judge students based solely on their rank
within the system. A few elites are chosen as the winners. These elites
perpetuate the system, forcing the same educational system on people through
their status and power. There are some correspondence universities in
Japan, but the students are forced to adhere to a four-year program and
residential studies. The result is that less than 3 percent of the students
graduate. This situation shows that the desires and the needs of people
are not being met. IOND University gives person-to-person lectures to
its students via the Internet ( e-mail ). We challenge the traditional
education system of uniform grade evaluation by test scores‘memorizing’s
learning method, and the way as the university forces its sense of values
to the students. We set our educational programs according to the needs
of the student. IOND University takes pride in its ways and helps in developing
talented people who are prepared for the 21st century. In other words,
we teach our students to convert personal experience into learning. We
learn many things from our daily experiences, including the laws and the
systems of life. However, very few people can change these personal experiences
into learning. For example, a manual laborer learns construction skills
through experience, but his experience is only a personal one. The experiences
have not become the universal learning yet. If he is taught the learning
approach, he will be able to systematize the personal experiences into
the laws and change the personal life experiences into the learning. His
systematized experiences have the possibility of becoming universal treasures
not only for him, but also for mankind as he has the possibility to pass
on his systematized experience to others. The educational mission of IOND
University is to change personal experiences into learning for the benefit
of the world. I wish you happiness and future success.

people with significant professional experience. We are an international
correspondence university based in Hawaii (U.S.A.) and Tokyo (Japan).
|
IOND's Purpose & Ideals
THE FIRST MOTTO of IOND University
“We care about what you know, not where you learned it.”
| We assess and evaluate the student's personal experience and convert it into university credits. To get the necessary credits to graduate, we teach the student the learning methodology. |
THE SECOND MOTTO of IOND University
“We give the ability, not just the academic qualification.”

Educational System Which Promotes Success
Junior College
| IOND University promotes lifelong education for members of society and develops international education programs leading to a degree. We offer educational programs, primarily in the liberal arts areas, to people who did not have such an opportunity under the present educational system. |
College
| Students who study with IOND University understand the difference between the “learning” and the “experience” In the beginning, they study ways and techniques to systematize their personal experiences. IOND University does not impose the compulsory elements on its educational system such as enrollment in a four-years course, classroom study, long breaks, studying unnecessary subjects. Students complete the bachelor course when they have earned the necessary credits. Our educational method by e-mail conquers the limitations of distance and time and is becoming a model for a new university system that is adapted to the future high-level information society. |
Graduate School
| IOND University places high importance on educating the creative professional researchers who are able to convert unknown territory into the most advanced science. It also emphasizes the practical use of the results of this research. The social achievements and research and development abilities of the researchers are also highly considered. IOND University promotes opening the results of the high-level professional research to the public as the public property. |
Laboratory
| Half-finished knowledge and technology is not accepted in the intensely competitive and changing international society. IOND University promotes cooperation between industry and the academic world for practical research and the development. The University has many laboratories and researchers manage their own budget and projects independently. The results of the cooperative research are returned to society through intermediaries and become motivating powers for the progress and development of society. |

Q&A Guidance for Admission
|
What age group is most represented? |
|
Age does not matter for admission to IOND University. IOND was founded to spread life long learning and to enable all members of society obtain an academic degree. Most students are in their thirties or forties, but we receive applications from both men and women, ranging from their twenties to their seventies. |
|
Is it true that credits
already earned in other universities/ colleges or social experiences are counted as IOND University credits? |
|
Yes, it is true. Each student's education background, thesis, writings, studies, social activities, qualifications, career, etc. will count towards IOND University credits. If the converted credits already exceed the standards for graduation, the students can graduate by submitting a graduation thesis or dissertation. If the student does not have enough credits to graduate, they must study the necessary subjects before submitting their thesis or dissertation for graduation. The thesis or dissertation may be submitted by mail or e-mail. We value your personal experience. |
|
What is the educational
background of the applicants? What is their primary motivation? |
|
Each student has a different educational background and reason for studying. Some people want to obtain a masters or a doctorate degree; others want to complete an academic degree which they started previously, or upgrade their work skills or general knowledge. Most applicants, however, have the ability and the talent, but not an academic degree. Others have chosen to accelerate their careers through IOND distance learning. |
|
How do you select the students for admission? |
|
The masters or doctorate degree programs are only open to university graduates. Applicants for other programs are examined through a two stage screening process in accordance with the IOND University's criteria. |
|
Is it acceptable to write
papers or the graduation thesis in Japanese? |
|
Yes, however, the summaries attached to the graduation thesis or dissertation must be written in English. In cases of difficulty, our secretariat staff is available to translate the summaries. |
|
Must students attend classroom schooling? |
|
In principle, classroom schooling is not required. However, it depends on the subjects chosen. Students receive credits for studies carried out and are evaluated by mail or e-mail. |
|
How long are students enrolled in IOND University? |
|
Students are enrolled for a minimum of two months and a maximum of two years. The length of time depends on what is studied and how many credits are to be earned. In cases where students cannot finish the curriculum within two years, they may extend their enrollment for a period of one year and pay the adjournment fee. |
|
How do students apply for degrees and how are they awarded? |
|
Students will be informed whether or not they have passed within two to four weeks after submitting the required documents and fees. If a student does not pass, additional papers or corrections or additions to the thesis will be requested. A thesis is not required for an Associate's degree. |
|
Can students get M.A. or Ph.D. if they already have B.A.? |
|
Yes, they can. Since their social activities after graduation are converted to the IOND's credits, all the students need is to earn newly the necessary credits. Therefore, The IOND's programs are very efficient for working people to obtain new academic degrees. |
|
Any rules for the graduation thesis or dissertations? |
|
Students can choose any theme freely in their subjects and write the required volume of papers for the graduation thesis. |
