Virtual Campus: Distance learning at UTB-TSC makes educational, economic sense - Gary Long, The Brownsville Herald
A whole world of online learning is available to UTB-TSC students without ever setting foot on campus. Or for that matter, without ever leaving home. In the digital age, virtually all of the resources of the University of Texas at Brownsville and Texas Southmost College are available to its students online. All you need is access to the Internet. "With distance online learning, you don't have to get to a classroom at a set time and set place," said Douglas Ferrier, UTB-TSC dean of instructional support. "The flip side is you have to be self-disciplined and self-motivated, but if you have those things you're set - you have access to all of the university's resources."
