At our state flagship campus, undergrads have to take 3, yes three, 'diversity' classes to graduate. All majors. As a parent, can you imagine paying for that junk?!?! There is a lot of unnecessary crap required for degrees these days and any streamlining is more than welcome.

The biggest argument FOR keeping all of the 500 campuses around Louisiana was so that everyone had a campus near them. Online colleges end the need for that. It's time to start closing campuses around Louisiana, but we will not.

Sadly, this is an accurate representation of my personal experience with online education.
I have only taken online offerings from traditional brick and mortar campuses, but I assume those are representative of the industry (excluding for-profit online colleges, which lack any credibility, anyway).

Online universities should start up video game competitions with each other, school spirt
