This was a great session because there are so many inaccurate negative perceptions of online students and online education. He was prepared with statistics that indicate 90% of students surveyed feel that online education is equal or better than traditional campus programs. He suggested arming students with information to deal with the negative comments that are sometimes made. This was a very positive session!
