Dear Lars,

Thanks - interesting articles on Corinthian Colleges' failure and federal education monies ...

http://www.nytimes.com/2014/06/27/business/Corinthian-Colleges-Falters-as-Federal-Cash-Wanes.html

Paul Fain - many articles about Corinthian ...

I wonder if WUaS could be redirected some of these monies to help hire MIT graduate student instructors WUaS, for example, next year, to teach the first WUaS undergraduate class: "The College at WUaS" ...

I also wonder about contacting the journalist above, Paul Fain, at Inside Higher Ed about writing an article about World University and School.

Any thoughts about accessing such monies since the U.S. Federal government seems to be closing Corinthian Colleges, and their colleges as well as online learning centers?

Thanks again for letting me know about this turn of events.

Free, C.C., MIT OCW-centric WUaS should be able to do much better than this online, but how best to invite students to focus on these WUaS degree opportunities: "Admissions at WUaS" ... http://worlduniversity.wikia.com/wiki/The_College_at_World_University_and_School#World_University_and_School_Links? There seems to be a fair amount of online student learning interest in free individual courses at edX and Stanford Coursera by way of comparison.

Sincerely,
Scott
