- yeison 14y agoThis is such a progressive step. I love to see this sort of initiative. It makes it very viable for any young students looking to try and get a step ahead. I'm actually going to send the algebra course to my younger brother now.

- jamessun 14y agoThe speed at which changes are occurring in the U.S. higher education system is amazing. Colleges and universities that don't adapt -- and adapt quickly -- will go down the same path as buggy whip makers and dead-tree publishers.
