The entering students were exposed to a multi-dimensional course whose basic purposewas to efficiently provide not only an understanding of what is involved in the ‘design process’performed in industry but also the opportunity to employ and develop those design functions andskills at the very outset of the students’ undergraduate experience. The several components ofthe course were integrated to include:  Use of technical resources  Technical report writing and oral delivery  Research into the functions of technical societies  Comprehensive discussions of fundamental manufacturing processes followed by design projects that would employ a given process towards the redesign

The main purpose of the paper is to ask college educators and policymakers to rethink the credibility and quality of modern college education which could beendangered by issuing college degrees to the students who never really took the requiredcourses.IntroductionAs the Internet usage becomes an indispensable part of our daily routine and everything goesonline, Distance Learning has been steadily gaining popularity. A significant portion of thestudents take online courses. To meet this needs and to attract remote students many colleges anduniversities now offer online courses as replacements or as supplements to the traditionalclassroom based face-to-face courses.

The case methodof studying ethical behavior, ethical violations, and the fine line distinctions between the twowould provide a concrete basis for professional responsibility training.
