In the past few year*, we have witne**ed a multitude
of new programs for people who cannot or will not use the
traditional method* of college education. As if by some
great vision, many college and university educators have
come to realize that there are people without college
degrees who have a* much, and many times more,
knowledge than their college educated friends For this
reason, it ia now possible to receive a degree without
leaving your home For many people, it appear* the "truth
ha* set them free."
I have written a newsletter describing the new era of
college education without going to,college. There are a
multitude of ways to obtain a degree, commonly known as
external degree programs. For information, send $1 to
