An inferior institution with an ironic name.

Maybe but the success is real and the $$ green. At least not facing academic probation like UVa.

To be fair, 95% of schools in the US are in some ways, inferior to UVa. Either way, you gotta love it when someone with the "Charlottesville Superiority Complex" makes a comment like this. What is ironic, as badger pointed out, is that UVa is the recipient of a warning by SACS. Secondly, I know it eats the academics up to find that UVa is slowly falling into line BEHIND Liberty in regards to online learning. I'm betting that in less than 10 years, UVa will have a robust online program and we will be hearing the academics say that UVa was one of the schools paving the way. For all the critics of Liberty's online program and the size of their cohorts, UVa had a few classes online that had more than 10,000 students registered... per class. Hows that for big numbers! I'm sure they will continue to follow in Liberty's footsteps until they develop an acceptable platform, or until the boards forces the issue.
