the Brooklyn Center campus and the building was emptied. Accreditation Brown College was nationally accredited by the Accrediting Commission of Career Schools and Colleges of Technology (ACCSCT) and (see ACICS ), which accredits for-profit schools. Brown College did not have regional accreditation. Thus, many regionally accredited schools did not accept their credits for transfer to undergraduate courses or recognize their degrees for entry into graduate programs. Academics Brown College had three schools offering Bachelor’s and associate degrees in the following areas: School of Broadcasting – Communication Studies Program, Radio Broadcasting Program and Television Production Program School of Design – Digital Photography, Interior Design, Visual communications Program, Graphic Design Program and Multimedia Program School of Technology – Game Design & Development Program, Information Technology Program and Network Development Program and Software Development Program Business Management – Business Management Program Criminal Justice – Criminal Justice Program Campuses Brown College was located in Mendota Heights, Minnesota, with a separate autonomous campus in Brooklyn Center. In August 2011, Brown moved its Mendota Heights campus across the street into a new site. This was a single one-level modern building with new equipment. Earlier in the year a very similar structure was constructed for the Brooklyn Center site. Brown College had a radio station named the Voice of Brown College or simply known as the VBC. Students in their 5th quarter operated the studio during the mornings, and voicetrack shows were broadcast later in the day.
