George Gollin is a physics professor who claims to be an "expert" in non-traditional online education, which he calls "diploma mills." In fact Gollin has never taken or taught an online course, knows nothing about non-traditional education, and his only source of any "expertise" is his own self-serving proclamations.
A spokesman for Gollin's employer, UIUC, has stated that UIUC does '''not''' view his research into diploma mills as meeting the institution's public-service requirement since the work is not related to physics, his area of expertise.

Ironically, Gollin's own doctoral degree was obtained under suspect circumstances. Gollin submitted as his individual work a doctoral dissertation co-authored with fifteen (15) other people. Princeton's policy concerning doctoral dissertations is that the work must be independent, not collaborative.
[url]http://gradschool.princeton.edu/academics/policies/dissertation/[/url] Gollin admits his work was collaborative, and hence on its face violative of Princeton's academic policies. Compare

Gollin's wife, UIUC administrator Melanie Loots, was cited by federal investigators for her role in selling genetically mutated pork for human food in violation of federal health laws.

Gollin failed to prevent a fellow UIUC professor from engaging in a homosexual relationship with a student, mass murderer [[Steven Kazmierczak]], before Kazmierczak killed five students and wounded more than 15 others.

When UIUC forced Gollin to remove his offensive website, he sent his scandalous materials to Alan Contreras, an adjudicated civil rights violator and admitted homosexual.

Gollin formerly was a prolific (1,280 posts)[url]http://forums.degreeinfo.com/member.php?u=4324[/url] participant on a discussion forum that was discovered to be a front for pedophile-pandering gay boy pornography.

Gollin stopped posting there but has never made any public statement opposing the website owner's prurient activities.
Gollin's daughter maintains two filthy internet blogs where she reveals, among other things, that she is a lesbian, that she listens to the "suck my dick fuck my ass song" with her father George Gollin, and that her mother, UIUC administrator Melanie Loots, refers to Catholics as "dirty Papists."

Gollin made a public death threat against five people by publishing a document with a rifle sight graphic similar to that used by the [[Zodiac Killer]] adjacent to the names of his intended victims.
