With recent registrations reflecting a growing enthusiasm for more online classes, SUNY Oswego officials say they will meet the demand. Officials announced a 60 percent increase of online classes for the fall semester. Some students say they prefer online courses because they’re more accessible and offer more flexibility. MBA graduate student Alex Klatsky says online courses help ease the commute from Syracuse to Oswego. He has completed six online courses. “Between going to Syracuse and up to Oswego for classes, it can be a bit of a commute,” he said. “And with the price of gas, it can also be a bit costly. So by being able to take online classes, I save probably an hour a day on travel time.” That adds up to $50 a week in Klatsky’s bank account and the college is saving money too.
