Cyber-University

Linda talks with Governor Roy Romer of Colorado about plans to create a "virtual university." Romer and the governors of Arizona, Idaho, Nebraska, New Mexico, North Dakota, Oregon, Utah, Washington and Wyoming yesterday signed a plan to develop the home-based higher education program, which will utilize computers as the primary teaching tool. Romer says the program is designed mostly for people in jobs and that the first catalogue will be put together over the next six months.
