professional NFL and NHL players (yes Ice Hockey in San Diego at a university, at the time any ice hockey west of
Colorado was considered ridiculous - and still is?). The mascot was the 'Gulls" - Which is now the SD pro Team's namesake. There are numerous articles I have found, from Sports Illustrated as well as coverage by the Union Tribune, Reader, etc. Not just Ice Hockey, USIU produced NFL players and had one of the most legendary coaches in Football history did a stint there. For basketball there is even a documentary about one of its basketball players, who still holds a Division 1 record for his time there. He was made homeless when the program got cut and he lost his scholarship. This is really a forgotten SD legacy.

Wiki Admin has told me the page already exists so I can't publish it, referring to
Alliant International Univ. However, these two organizations are now really distinct. Alliant is a for-profit corporation (2015), USIU was a not-for-profit liberal arts school with a rich collegiate background. It was

I was trying to get the page started and then let the wider community contribute as there are so many rich threads associated with this (and I am a total novice on Wiki). There are disparate pages on
Knowledge (XXG) out there which I have included below, but I believe this needs to be organized into

The fact is that for +50 years of existence USIU was always in financial trouble. In 2001 it merged with another school, California School for
Professional Psychology (CSPP). CSPP was also in equally dire straits. The new entity was called Alliant International University. Somehow CSPP's legacy has

I think it is a great read so far and definitely can become better with retrieval of more articles especially from the school archives. For example, one thread I have only brushed the surface on is about the wealthy international students who attended. For example, there was a Saudi Prince's there

Now to make things a little worse, in 2015 Alliant
International became a For-Profit Corporation (no athletics, completely different entity as well.) I feel this is big distinction with USIU, and further warrants USIU to have its own distinct page in the large encyclopedia context as a point of
