Higher education and accreditation - worth it, or not?

[Guest guest]

Perhaps one or two of you might have some experience with this subject.

For someone who's convinced of the value of traditional foods - and is

interested in working in the field of nutrition (e.g. as a writer or

advisor) - is there any value in conventional university programs in

" nutritional science " ? (I'm particularly curious about programs in

the San Francisco Bay Area, such as the MS program at San State.)

Also, is it possible to become, say, a registered dietitian, without

being obliged to propagate " politically correct nutrition " ?

Thanks for any help you can provide.
