The cost of education is now becoming a barrier to universal education. Distancelearning can provide an economic alternative to in-class learning even when the studentpopulation is primarily located on campus. In a commuter university setting, distancelearning can have both an economic and environmental impact, reducing the time spent inneedless transit which in turns conserves precious resources. Distance learning canprovide the possibility for minority students to obtain
