According to the mailing I received from the alumni association, in 1987, TESU was one of the first colleges to offer online courses.

"Online" doesn't have to mean the WWW. http://www.zdnet.com/article/before-the-...-services/
I hope it's true.

Here's a history of virtual courses. The Internet was invented in the 1960s.

I'm well aware of when the internet was invented. I was around back then. If anyone on this forum was transported back in time to 1987, the chance of them taking this class was slim to none ( and I use "slim" just because I don't believe in stating absolutes). Carry on.

I don't think the point was that it was a popular or easily accessible option for average people, but that it was an innovative early example of such an option.

I did graduate in 1987 from the Big 3 and taking a course from the internet was unheard of.

When this quote is taken in context (and not chopped down to this one poorly phrased sentence), he's not really wrong. Even Vinton Cerf, who actually was one of the big pioneers in the invention of the internet, defended Gore's full statement.

Does it say the name of the college courses taught? How many took them?
