The fact that it's an offshore virtual college seems more significant. I just don't think the time it took to get ANY PhD following her already-existing Masters in cellular engineering, should be used as a "see, that's proof right there" argument. Poor journalism, in other words.
Methinks you're missing the main point...which isn't the length of time for the degree.

That it's unaccredited, completely virtual, offshore and so dirt cheap...are the "significant" parts.

But hey, their site looks totally legit and high-quality...so what the heck.
