    Besides getting your daily fix of degreeinfo – what other distance learning sites do my fellow members visit?

    Know, why would anybody want to go to any other distance learning site, when you can get all the right information right here,

    RIGHT?!?

    That other forum seems to be quite childish, full of cussing and calling other people names rather than actually giving advice; be it biased advice or not.

    I'm obviously biased, but my answer is.....none.

    Every other site I've seen quickly becomes infested with shills for the mills, which is the ruination of any DL page.

    Luckily, we have honest, trustworthy, and great-looking moderators here to keep things in perspective. :D

    WHAT?????????????

    There are other DL sites???

    :D :D :D

    Just kidding, I visit Lawrie Miller's site 2-3 times a week. I've not found any of the others of much use for me, I'M NOT KNOCKING THEM!!!!!! OKAY? These two sites are where I get information that is useful for ME.

    :cool:

    Lawrie's site is content-rich and on-target.

    Don't forget Jonnie Liu's site. Filled with links. Click Here

    I don't visit them daily but I visit some of the yahoo discussion groups, some school related, some not, e.g. CAEL. I visit online college info, college hints, I also visit US News and World Report discussion boards which dwarf this board but those folks are very anti-distance learning but they have very knowledgeable people there too. I used to visit about.com, and of couse AED gets a peek a few times a month.

    Check out www.Degreeforum.com

    I agree about online-college, those guys are soooo Neggaatttivvee! Ouch, my brain hurt after that. On a positive note, check out www.degreeforum.com it is outstanding! It was started by a user of this forum who is finishing up his degree at Excelsior. Lot's of great threads regarding CLEP's, Dantes, ECE, TECEP's, the big 3, Graduate school and a lot more. Like this forum, it is very positive and encouraging. Take a look you'll be glad you did.

    Yes indeed. Add this to the sane list along with Lawrie and Johnnie. Good specialty site.

    For no-one using online-college news from there travels here really fast.

    And since it does, perhaps you can answer a question.

    You quickly quarrel with anything on this site that bothers you, but you have had nothing whatever to say in response to the comments on that other site about Mark Israel and his family.

    Why not?

    I agree Uncle Janko. I did not know there were people who took joy in another’s head injury – the fact they continue to post says a lot about the quality of the site. I also thought the comments concerning Mark were way over the line. The only thing I can assume is that it is a couple of junior high school kids trying to act like what they see villains do in cartoons. You almost want to post back, “Does your mom know you are online?”. If I were one of that site’s sponsors, I would take a close look at that discussion board’s content.

    I stick to education issues over there. I leave the vocal guys alone and they leave me alone. Do you think that the people who post over there aren't many of the same people who post here? They're just more restained here. I have offered my sympathies to Mark and his family on two sites, thought that would do it.

    I think it is clear the people we are talking about have been BANNED from degreeinfo. Especially interesting K.C./S. Laven. He seems to border on psychotic.

    Gee, Dennis, thanks for the irrelevancy.
    I was not asking about them.
    I was asking about you.
    Your evasion speaks louder than their shouting.

    Don't ask what I think about your silence there.
    You don't want to know and I don't care to express it.
