University of Beverly Hills

The University of Beverly Hills is a college.

In his 1992 book, The News Shapers: The Sources Who Explain the News, Lawrence C. Soley listed Andy Lightbody, a broadcast news analyst on the Gulf War and other military topics, as an example of a news media expert, his only degree was from the University of Beverly Hills.[1]

In 2006, the auditor/controller and treasurer/tax collector of Tulare County, California, Rita Woodard, was sued by a CPA who alleged that Woodard was legally ineligible to hold her elected position. Woodard said she had a degree from the University of Beverly Hills.[2] A judge ruled in October 2006 that Woodard could hold office because the California State Legislature had not set specific requirements to hold office when it created the combined positions of auditor/controller and treasurer/tax collector. The ruling was upheld on appeal in 2007.[3][4][5]
