Western Kentucky U. Virtual enrollment growing - Joe Lord

English professor Charmaine Mosby often grades assignments at home. But as she adds comments to her student's essays from an introduction to literature class, she never reaches for a red ink pen. Mosby just uses a keyboard. The Internet has made this class and many others paperless. Enrollment in online classes at Western has doubled since last year.
The number of courses available on the Web has also doubled, while the number of full-time students taking at least one online class has tripled since last year.
