Alabama Commission on Higher Education
- Alabama Commission on Higher Education
The Alabama Commission on Higher Education is the government agency that oversees higher education in the US state of Alabama.
Currently, the state is considered a haven for diploma mills, but the state agencies "are planning to seek new legislation during the upcoming legislative session to better protect consumers, who shouldn't be led to think that a degree from one of these outfits represents anything of value."
