Online education will be the silver bullet. Is there anything taught in a university today that can’t be self-taught online?

While there is merit in your thought, there is discipline required to go to class. I suspect that many don’t have the discipline required for educating them selves on line.

It takes discipline to roll out for an 8:00. It takes discipline to roll out and drive to the local college for morning classes.

Oh yes, then there are the labs. On line labs?

At the book-learning level? Not much.

I’ve done a little research into what is available the last few years and it has grown exponentially.

Some things like labs are not suited to this.
