Antioch University was definitely a part of Antioch University - Yellow Springs, Ohio. I was employed by Antioch West as the Assistant Registrar from 1984-1987, and can personally attest that the west coast campus was affiliated with, and beholden to, the regulations of the mother campus in Ohio during this time.
