TUCSON Ariz.
The digital era is helping remove the need for college students to show up on campus.
It’s become more common for students to log on to the Web to apply for college, register, pay tuition, get tutorials and chat with faculty and advisers.
And more students complete entire programs online.
“There is a lot more interaction going on online,” said Pima Community College Chancellor Roy Flores.
Just think: No more long lines, scheduling around family and work, prowling for on-campus parking or sweat-breaking attempts to get to class on time.
Pima College, like the University of Arizona, is not only adding online classes, but is also increasing the number of programs entirely on the Web.
