	In a recent issue of Compute! magazine I read an article on
long-distance education, particularly through a modem. Apparently,
there is an institution in California called "Electronic University"
which works with a number of very reputable universities (Cornell,
SUNY, Boston, California State etc) to offer courses and degree 
programs through telecommunications. Has anybody heard anything good
or bad about them? Theoretically, they offer a number of degrees
(MBA, BA, B.Sc.B.Adm.,....) which are granted by the above-named
universities. I was directed to a place in California called "TeleLearning
Systems" for more information ?!!
