I am Les Snell's daughter. I know I am very late finding this discussion. I want to say that the woman in the picture with him is completely innocent. I don't believe she knew anything about all that he was doing and from what I understand they broke up after he wiped her bank account clean. I have not spoken to him in over 3 years so I do not know his location or current business practice. What I do know is that he is not a trustworthy business man. Unless he finds Jesus, this will not change.
703-232-1647 is the number given on the website for Regus U. It is a land-line in Occoquan, Virginia. Whether or not Mr. Snell can be found at the end of that phone-line, I know not. He owes me nothing. Although I can well afford it, I am far too much of a cheapskate to spend 98 cents to find out. Perhaps someone else has stronger motivation to catch up with the elusive (?) Les Snell. Dang - that reverse-phone info used to be free!
Someone who filed a complaint on Ripoff report claimed he was a victim of Mr. Snell's previous school and that although Regus U was (then) showing a Washington DC area phone number, Leslie Edwin Snell was living in Tyler, Texas.
Hope this helps someone - I'm done with this. I don't have a horse in the race. I'd rather chase Schweizerische Titelmühlen.

Not to worry. I'm sure if Mr. Snell finds Jesus, the Lord will recognize him and keep a firm grip on His wallet.

Okay, let's see if I understand this . . .
This is a thread that was started in 2008, and the last post was in September 2010, some three-and-a-half years ago.
Now we have a first-time poster who claims to be Snell's daughter, reactivating a dead thread.
What do you want, o' alleged daughter? Justification? Absolution? Forgiveness? Catharsis?
Okay, you got 'em. Now get out.
Having nothing better to do, I started looking up Snell family ancestry. This page has a rather nostalgic picture, about 100 years old or slightly more, which I believe to be Mr. Snell's grandfather, Warren Snell and his (Warren's) brother Gordon.
According to what I read, Warren's son, Carl Wilmont Snell, would have been Les Snell's father. Here's the page on Mr. Carl Snell, showing Leslie Edwin Snell, b. 1948 as his son.
And what relevance does all this have, here? I really have no idea. :question: I just like old photographs, I guess.
Oops - Gordon was Mr. Snell's grandfather - not his brother, Warren. My apologies for mixing them up. Gordon's son, Carl Snell, was Leslie Edwin Snell's father - I misread this. Sorry!

FWIW - "Alleged daughter?" I think the claim may be genuine. If it is, I think it would be from Gretchen Lynne Tripp, a.k.a. Dekker, formerly Snell. I doubt this poster will be back, after "due process of Levicoff." Too bad. She may have had some interesting anecdotes to share...and it's slow around here!
I have no idea if it's valid or not. And yes - as expressed by poster G. Tripp - I hope Jesus and Mr. Snell do find each other -- could be quite a meeting!
Went through some VERY old stuff - and it's now evident why Gretchen Snell-Dekker-Tripp chose to comment on the trustworthiness of Les Snell - if it was her - and I rather think it was. Looks like she was in cahoots with Les, re: Monticello U. and paid a stiff price for her participation.
In 2000, the State of Hawaii obtained a default judgment against her in the case of Monticello University, including liability for civil penalties of $100,000.
"10. Failing to disclose that one individual is responsible for all operations of nine schools (Locke School of Management, Roosevelt School of Public Administration, Churchill School of History & Government, DeTocqueviIle School of Educational Policy and Leadership, Franklin School of Social Sciences, Kennedy School of Criminal Justice, Dag Hammerskjold School of Diplomacy & International Studies, King’s College & Seminary, Monticello University School of Law) and 425 courses in 14 separate disciplines.
Tsk. Tsk. That's all I have to say about this ancient exhumation. The Regus U. site is looking pretty down-at-heel and may be inactive, for all I know.

Probably a ruse. Fire off a check and watch it perk up instantly!
This person just started a "class" at the Blue Mesa restaurant in Addison Texas. Claimed he is a PHD in psychology, but did not knew the parts of the brain:). He called his name as Jeff Foster. We all knew he was a fake and most people walked out on him.
