The new issue of The Chronicle of Higher Education features a story on a
day in the life of a student at Western Governors University, which is
making it possible for students to earn degrees without ever being on a
physical campus. The Chronicle is also sponsoring an on-line discussion on
the issues the story raises about the quality of distance learning and how
to measure that quality. The Chronicle would welcome comments from members
of this list. You can find the story and join the discussion at:
