<p>University of Phoenix has already done that, they have canned courses developed by top professors in Ivy Leagues and they are selling it to anyone who wants it and can pay for it. </p>
<p>If those lectures are all that it is needed, why are parents on this forum interested in sending their children to brick and mortar institutions if U of P will allow students to get an online degree that includes lectures from so called best professors? </p>
<p>U of P might not necessarily be cheaper but will allow students to stay at home and may be work a lot more hours than most students do now, after all it is delivered anytime anywhere. </p>
<p>I think students learn from other students, and that is an experience that on-line learning cannot do as well, at least today. Else U of P should be the most sought after institution.</p>
