No doubt we can send the shuttle up with people who learned all about it online.

Next time someone needs brain surgery we’ll have an online degreed doc perform.

Actually, although we are not quite there yet, we probably will be in pretty short order. And their qualifications and quality of work will be high.

Heck, relatively soon they’ll be able to control robotic surgical tools from across the country.

Hey, he didn’t say there’d be no role for universities. But truly smart engineers could study completely through online schools before going to work at NASA. Future docs we might still want to have mucking around with cadavers before they start their internships and residencies with live patients.

Did I miss something? Where did it say ALL categories of learning would be effectively available online? Or only available online? However at this time, a great deal of online teaching is being done through about any university you want to check.
