According to Carrie Sealey-Morris, Editor for Value Colleges, With all the excitement in higher education around online learning, and the rush by colleges to create and build up their own virtual programs, it's easy to think that the traditional campus-based college is becoming obsolete. However, residential programs can offer many benefits online still can't quite match: mentoring, networking with your cohort, and the indelible experience of living and/or working on a college campus, with access to cultural events, history, and beauty."
