In my experience learning online is way more effective and efficient.

Why it is not the default option for universities?

    I think a great majority of learning in college comes from living someplace other than home. Meeting different kinds of people from different places and spending time with them. Classes are very important but so much learning happens outside of classrooms.

      I think this is one of the reasons conservatives hate college. Impressionable students might develop empathy, and we certainly can’t have that.

        In my experience, it doesn’t need to be on-campus. Just getting to know other students and working/studying with them is enough.
