History

Frederick Taylor University was established in 1994 to cater to mature adult learners, 20 years or older.

The University offers undergraduate and graduate distance education programs in business, leading to either a bachelors or master's degree. Students can enroll at any time throughout the year.

In 2012, the New York Times reported that it is located in an office building in Moraga where it occupies a "cramped office on the second floor".

The institution lists six faculty members, led by Mansour S. Saki and his wife, Zhilla Nayeri Saki. Mansour Saki reports holding a Ph.D. from the CSM Institute of Graduate Studies, while Zhilla Saki reports a doctorate-level degree in business administration from the same school. According to the New York Times, CSM relinquished its accreditation in 2004. The Sakis' daughter, Maryam S. Boller, is also on the faculty. Boller holds a bachelor's degree from University of California, Berkeley and a master's degree from the University of London.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Anything in history or nature that can be described as changing steadily can be seen as heading toward catastrophe.
    Susan Sontag (b. 1933)

    History has neither the venerableness of antiquity, nor the freshness of the modern. It does as if it would go to the beginning of things, which natural history might with reason assume to do; but consider the Universal History, and then tell us,—when did burdock and plantain sprout first?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)
