Maybe you do, because you're making an awful lot of uninformed guesses and treating them like facts.

It's true that people like us don't mean much revenue for them, but that doesn't mean this policy change relates to that. If all they wanted was more revenue, then it doesn't make sense that they didn't just require 30 credits be from Charter Oak itself, rather than continue to allow it to come from transfer, including TECEP and UExcel.

Other reasons than revenue that might have led to this change include pushback from NEASC-CIHE, a change in Connecticut's legislative or regulatory environment, or some other reason that wouldn't occur to you, me, or anyone else who doesn't work for the institution.

Okay, but (as you pointed out) you would also be making a guess that it might have something to do with regulative affairs. You don't know that either. We're in the same boat. I am just more skeptical when I see a whole bunch of ACE credit being excluded without any argument for course inferiority, or changed from upper to lower level. That raises my eyebrows.  I am willing to accept that there is more to it than the money for the reasons that you stated. I also believe that the left out exams provide a level of hope. However, the caution is still needed, becouse even that might go away in the near future. Of course, we won't have much impact on such things. At least, we can comment on them.
