DL Truth: Distance Learning Truth

I came across an interesting thread started, by of all people, Bruce the Cop.

DI thread on DL accomplishments

There are some impressive achievements, some people really took advantage of the explosion of DL offerings in the last 10 years, and there are some other things that just cause you to shake your head. I point to hemorrhoid #1 pugbelly proudly boasting about receiving "tons" of those bogus FEMA credits to use as electives. As I have said about the FEMA credits before, just accept the credits, receive the degree and STFU about it!!! It isn't college-level anything and certainly nothing to be proud of.

It is interesting how TESC and Excelsior accept FEMA courses but do not accept nationally accredited courses. FEMA courses are NOT university level learning. I think someone could knock off the max 26 Excelsior accepted credits in a week.

I agree about the STFU part. When you are given a gift don't rub everyone's nose in it.
