According to the New York Times, the online University of Phoenix is in trouble with regulators. The allegations: papers graded without comment; most courses taught by part-timers; instructors who boasted about how little they taught; misleading course descriptions. I had to laugh when I read that. If the University of Phoenix feels singled out, I sympathize. Who are these regulators, and where do they come from? Where do they get their ideas about universities?? If their standards are really so high, their work will never be done.
I have to say this sounded exceptionally dreary: "its campuses, most of which are office buildings near freeways."
