Index Number: 13195 In the December issue of Newsbits, there is an interview with Charles Jackson, who describes how online degrees can be received via the modem from the University of Phoenix. Very basically, the course assignments, handouts, and so on are transferred via a bulletin board system located in San Francisco, but there are no real-time conferences, both for reasons of practacality and expense. Two different masters degrees are currently being offered, as well as the ability to complete a bachelors degree if certain prior requirements have been met, and for more information, you can contact Charles voice at 1-800-388-5463. Also, the University of Phoenix online catalog is available from BlinkLink via file request or downloading under the name UOP-CAT.ZIP. Oh yeah, just in case your speech program didn't read that to you correctly, it was U O P dash C A T point Z I P, got it? Now, where'd I put my bookbag?
