Online Classes Growing among SUNY Campuses - Denise Richardson, New York Daily Star
 
At 187 students in classroom and online courses at the State University College of Technology at Delhi this summer, enrollment is about double compared to last year, said Dennis Callas, provost and academic vice president. Faculty and students reported they liked the online courses last year, the first time online courses were offered, said Callas, who attributed the enrollment increase to online offerings.  "We were testing the water. We were kind of shocked at the response,’’ Callas said last week, the second week of the second summer session. "It’s clearly a growing program.’’ More than 16,000 enrollments were expected in the SUNY Learning Network in 1,000 courses this summer, up 40 percent from last year, according to a release issued in May. The network is the online learning arm of the State University of New York system.
