As I think about it currently, Friendly colleges would potentially be able to "leverage so many aspects of open access education in terms of expanding learning opportunities within our settings" if one were to conceive of Friendly college settings in terms of FAHE itself as a Friendly Quaker higher education setting for learning and related opportunities. In this opening way, Quaker colleges could anticipate, for example, Friendly-informed PH.D., Law, and M.D. online degree opportunities at CC WUaS and teach toward these at the undergraduate level, and students could learn about these degree opportunities in the context of FAHE, thus leveraging the power of open access post-undergraduate degree education re Friendly-informed open access education developments at Quaker colleges." I find myself in awe of this ideology / pedagogy --- around Friendly colleges and Friendly informed info-sharing, I'm absolutely rapped by such thinking! What a novel and credible notion!
