This article was passed on to me and I thought I would get it up on a post to see what you all think.
I like the fact that Liberty is given some credit for using the latest technology to provide opportunities for others not able to get to the campus.

Many times articles are not as infomred as this one, there is a biased usually built in.
I will pay attention to these things when I can, But I am in the CheapSeats.

No worries. It's because you are too cheap to buy your own paper!

It is a surprisingly balanced article especially from WaPo. There is nothing wrong with bringing it up again.

It's certainly better than the one by Bloomberg a week or so ago...

I thought it was pretty balanced as well.

Both articles seem to show, if nothing else, that innovation is working well for LU. I know some people (still) who only accept the traditional 4 year, youthful education tradition as the only real degree. I have a friend who went through the University of Phoenix accelerated and on line courses many years ago. He told me then that some day his education (not his degree) would be valued because as it became a more normalized process, many people would take advantage of it. He has his Doctorate now and is overseeing a Music Program at a very large academy. My point is 20 years ago he was right! He is not outside looking in anymore.

Maybe a valuable education will be available all the way from the CheapSeats someday.
