I'd love to learn which government official and department is responsible for this action so we can direct our dislike of this decision towards them. P.S. The ML class Andrew Ng is teaching on Coursera is phenomenal by the way.

      Not precisely that, but the director was the Democratic party leader in the state senate: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Pogemiller http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Pogemiller Party aside, him being a 30-year career politician is noteworthy in itself.

      The FACTS are that Lawrence Pogemiller, director of the Minnesota Office of Higher Education is a Democrat. Pogemiller represented Minnesota Senate District 59. District 59 includes the University of Minnesota, the largest University in Minnesota. So yes, party is relevant to this discussion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Pogemiller http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lawrence_Pogemiller

        Why would a Wookiee, an 8-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of 2-foot-tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chewbacca_defense http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chewbacca_defense

        And the FACT is that Lawrence Pogemiller is the one who said that Minnesota does NOT intend to enforce this law against Coursera (overriding the earlier statement from the person in charge of registration), and will be working in January with the legislator and governor to get the law amended to take into these new developments in online education. If you are intending to try to smear Democrats, you are doing a spectacularly poor job.
