“He said the on-line courses are more demanding because they require the student to do more actual reading and little to no lectures.”

I already have 32 credits on my B school and most of it is online, and at Stanford they’ve had the online classes for 10 years plus. Why is this so hard to comprehend? . If you have a question, send an email. You are forced (just like high school etc) to use your brain and think it over.

“Also no parties and hanging out in overpriced bistros.”

Heck, I mostly hung out at the frat house. It’s part of life. Even military schools have hangouts to lighten the stress. C’mon..

The occasional party for stress relief is no big deal to me. Even Peyton Manning stayed in school his fourth year for the full “college experience”. IOW...parties, girls and glory.
Parties and a vibrant social life are a more recent development in the history of humanity. For the average student anyway.
The students of today seem so entitled to their version of life. They don’t understand reality at all. Reality is hard work mentally and physically. IDK, maybe that has been a college thing all along.
