“Internet College: What Are the True Costs?”
Guest editorial by Alma student Rachel Gerds, who defends the benefits of students physically attending a college. She writes: “I have been attending Michigan’s own Alma College for two years now. My academic work has taught me a lot, but it is nothing compared to the knowledge I have accrued outside the classroom. The nature of the traditional college experience has presented me with countless opportunities for growth and maturation. I have learned life lessons that might seem foreign to an Internet grad.”
