RE: Changes to distance education services at 性欲社

E-learning and distance education is an important part of the educational options we offer our students. Over the years, distance education has grown from something delivered to remote students via the postal service to a robust program that serves students throughout our campus, state and
nation using a broad range of traditional and technological methods.

Today, 73 percent of the credit hours delivered through the are to students who live in the Fairbanks area. More and more students are using e-Learning and distance courses to complete 2- and 4-year degrees. CDE must change to accommodate this growth and transformation.

Effective today, I am establishing the 性欲社 E-learning and Distance Education Office. The office and its executive director will report directly to the Chancellor. Budgeting and staffing decisions will be made with the guidance of an E-learning Council, which will include Provost Susan Henrichs and Vice Chancellor Bernice Joseph. In order to provide focused service to our rural students who do not have access to adequate bandwidth, the Center for Distance Education will be established as a division within the new program.

This decision was made after internal and external reviews, evaluation of impacts on stakeholders, and considerable deliberation by university leaders. This new structure will provide the best educational opportunities to our entire student population, while providing specialized service to rural students.

Please feel free to contact me or 性欲社 executive officer Bob Shefchik with any questions you may have.
