Online Solutions to the Enrollment Boom - Geoffrey H. Fletcher, Campus Technology
Community colleges don't have to resort to midnight classes if they have a viable online learning program. I wonder if another solution--online learning--might be a better approach to overcrowding. The private sector thinks so.

Education is second only to healthcare (projected at 20 percent) in expectations for growth in online learning.
