My Cheatin Heart?

"Methinks he doth protest too much"!

What Professor Kennedy appears to be saying is that there is no advantage in attending a course full time compared with doing it by distance learning.

I found at LSE that the group work that we did on our MSc Accounting & Finance was much more valuable than the homework that we did from home. I think that people pay a lot of money to go to courses like Ashridge not because the quality of the texts is good but because of the course work and the group work.

I do not accept that a degree done by distance learning is as good as one done full time at a college.

I am sure that many employers share my view on this matter.

I have had students tell me they have chosen to take Heriot-Watt distant-learning courses because the degrees do not indicate that it is not a full-time degree course.

They have agreed that the degree certificates are misleading.

But who do the readers support?

 

Whom.

Lutyens' building

I have read "Eats, Shoots & Leaves" once but clearly I need to read again.

 

UF as stopped even doing that, claiming the last four digits of a SSN is a risk for identity theft. Now all students are assigned yet another ID number by the university to memorize.

 

Are you serious?

This is just the Naval Academy. Google West Point and the Air Force Academy too.

 

I went to a public HS in a rural Florida town. The teachers frequently left the room and I never saw or heard of any cheating. Maybe it's the pressure to do better in pre-med?
