Does Larry Ditto actually have a PhD?

He says he does... it appears on the self-published book he wrote in 2003... but the bio above reads:

"In 1967, Mr. Ditto completed an MA in elementary administration and entered the doctoral program at Michigan State University as a teaching fellow."

"Entering" is not "graduating." I hate to be so skeptical but I'm wondering how a guy like this wound up running the forerunner of Artfest (a.k.a. "Soldnet") that did what?:

-----
"In 1979, Mr. Ditto became President, CEO, and 50% owner of a business that provided group purchasing programs for nursing homes. He specialized in negotiating agreements with suppliers for purchases of hundred of millions of dollars. The company was sold in 1996 to its largest competitor and he accepted a work/consulting agreement with the new owners. His contract ended in 2006."

Note: it does not say that Ditto was responsible for earning "hundred of millions of dollars." That statement could be interpreted as $200 to $900 million. I'd like to see the actual financials.

And now he's with Eddie.. or was. Is he collecting a salary?

What a way to use a PhD.
