Many skeptics feel that thereis not enough interaction with the teachers and other studentsto make a virtual campus as educational as a traditional campus.They also feel that the material is not as educational. Whilethis is dying out as a topic on the critics list, because theyare being proven wrong, I felt this was pretty interesting. Ihave attended both types of universities, online andtraditional. I have to disagree with all of the skepticsstatements. I personally attended a traditional campus throughout myfreshman year. During this time, I don't think I spoke to tenstudents and I was never able to contact my teachers.

But even theyfaced many challenges. Fighting was a way of life and the fearof attack preoccupied everyone. In the cold, draughty, disease-ridden castles people who livedto forty were considered old.
