In a time of Internet dominance in the lives of the young as well as a time-limited work force, the opportunity to take online courses adds significant educational opportunities. One needs to take a few precautions to make certain that advertised online courses are not put out by some sort of diploma mill, but that is easily done. As one promoting journalism online I should have thought that would have been a given.

I guess on the flip side of the coin, what are these people really going to be able to do with that degree? I'm not sure any hiring manager will be fooled... Incidentally, the google ad on this page is advertising a "CALCampus" school which offers "distance learning courses and programs" since 1986. They're spreading!
