Fact Sixty-eight (November 3, 2007) – Capella University’s Spelling Champ, Kurt Linberg, Teaching Experience?

At Capella University, those with previous teaching experience need not apply. That’s right – no EXPERIENCE needed. All that counts is the self-centered desire to make big bucks while, at the same time, abusing students (oops, make that LEARNERS). Take, for example, Capella’s dishonest “Executive Director” for their so-called “School of Business and Technology,” Kurt Linberg – you know the one, the guy that can’t write a Capella sentence if his life depended upon it and never did learn how to spell even the simplest of words. (CLICK HERE to view a sample.) So, just how does a dishonest liar like Linberg become an “Executive Director” (Capella-speak for “dean”)? According to his resume (which is freely available on the Internet) Kurt Linberg has NEVER TAUGHT as a full-time faculty member at ANY institution of higher learning or, for that matter, at a diploma mill. That’s right, Capella’s most dishonest “dean” has apparently NEVER taught! Of course, why should we be surprised? Don’t believe us? Take a look at a copy of his resume! CLICK HERE to view it. (We’re sorry for the continual emphasis on links to documents that prove what a dolt Linberg is but Capella’s unethical and lying shysters from the “law firm” of Drinker Biddle & Reath, Sir Chrisy the Sissy L’Orange and Horse’s Ass, Capella Stella Fey Epling, have a nasty habit of ignoring hard evidence – especially when they’re lying to the court).

Let’s take a look at another one on Linberg’s bios, this one came from Capella’s own web sight [sic] (Yes, Linberg is unable spell something as simple as that). As will soon be noted, Linberg’s illiteracy is highlighted by the fact that he begins EVERY SENTENCE with the personal pronoun “I.” While that may fit his ego, it certainly says a lot (oops, according to Linberg alot [sic] is a compound word) about someone who serves as a “Dean” at a “university.” Why would any real school hire someone, like Linberg, who has never taught and who is unable to write a simple sentence? Just for fun, here’s Linberg’s bio from Capella’s sight [sic]:

“I received my PhD in Applied Management and Decision Sciences from Walden University, an MS in Software Engineering from the University of St. Thomas in St. Paul, Minnesota, and a BS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Wisconsin-Stout. I have also published a number of papers on topics such as IT management, software development, and project management. I hold eight patents on mission-critical IT implementations. I am also a longtime member of the IEEE, ACM, and ASQ, and currently serves on the Advisory Board of NUTN. I have held executive level positions with the ACM SIGITE organization as well as the Minnesota Information Professional Society.”

In case you missed it, there were five sentences (we know that Sir Chrisy the Sissy L’Orange has a fetish for counting things), all of which began with “I”:

1. “I received”
2. “I have”
3. “I hold”
4. “I am”
5. “I have”

Impressed? We’re not. Perhaps Linberg’s literacy problem is part of the reason he hires and retains charlatans, such a Diane Stottlemyer (who literally buys and uses fake degrees from diploma mills) and allow snot-nosed punks, like Brian Imholte (who only has a BS), to serve as chief kangaroo on one of Capella’s Kangaroo Courts against graduate students, in which Linberg retaliates against those who stand up to his abuse, incompetence, and illegal actions. These matters also say nothing at all about Capella HUGE personnel problems (which we’ll be disclosing in our next post).
