really that great of an idea? Yes they provide single parents the ability to get a degree and nurture children‚ and yes they allow anti-social students to stay within their comfort zones‚ but are they really helping other college students? My personal opinion is no. I think online colleges are not as rewarding as traditional schooling. First of all‚ it makes students lazier. They won’t have a reason to leave the house‚ so they won’t.
