It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

As our comrade alludes to, you're thinking of accreditation, but I just wanted to add that such a thing usually only applies to educational requirements for degrees,* e.g. that your physics students know the vast majority of X body of content based on being that body being taught and tested. You can have absolute horseshit in elective courses (or even in the fat of mandatory courses, I think), and all of this is a world away from what you can print in your paper or have in presentations on campus, which is pretty much unrelated to accreditation so long as you aren't breaking the law or something.
I completely agree that it should be illegal, but it's not.
*On a state-by-state basis, there is also the matter of if your school itself is "licensed" (I believe this is the legal issue Trump "University" tripped over), but I don't really know how that works tbh
