When talking about "acidemia" and their thirst for money, I have always thought some of the hoopla associated with the myriad of "on-line" degrees programs were suspect.

NOT ALL, mind you.. but more than a few..

It goes way back,, I took several courses from the University of Pennsylvania, while AD in the 60t's. Math, Physics, & Statistics.

They were to easy. As soon as I had one complete, they would offer 3 more,, trying to get me hooked on buying credit hours and textbooks, which were as expensive as the classes.

There were non-degree ad hoc credits. Also, there was ZERO interaction with the school, just the mail-in of finished classwork and the return of new assignments.

The liberal left socialist driving the school bus advocate the LEFT at the same time plying for the millions good people and systems spend to get ahead.
