Cascadia launches online degree - Kelly Kearsley, Seattle Times
After trips to three campus offices yesterday morning, Cascadia Community College student Helen Khin finally sat at a computer in the school's lab. She tried to log on four times. "It's not recognizing my password," Khin said. "I think I need some help." It was a typical first day of classes, complete with long lines and computer crises. But it won't be a usual day for Khin. The 22-year-old student will spend most of her freshman year learning — and stressing about computer problems — from home. Beginning this fall, Cascadia Community College students can complete an associate's degree in integrated studies entirely online. The Bothell college has offered online courses since it opened four years ago, but this is the first degree available via the Internet.
