Clubs and organizations at TESU

[ss20ts]

APU (American Public University) does have a lot of student/alumni organizations, academic honor societies, clubs, etc. for online students.

What I find strange is that even for online students, community colleges charge crazy fees per credit hour for all the on-campus activities, such as student union, clubs and athletics. That's on top of separate per-hour technology fees, distance learning fees, registration fees, etc.

Not all community colleges do this. Maybe the ones in your area do. They don't in my area. Everyone pays technology fees at colleges nowadays it seems. All of the fees are money grabs because tuition doesn't cover all of their expenses. Many colleges are regulated so they can't raise tuition, but they can raise fees and hammer you with those. 

Many online programs have online alumni organization. Quite often it's on Facebook. Some have honor societies for online programs. That's up to the college to pursue and many haven't. Probably because not enough students have inquired to make it worth their time. 

What would an online club be for online students? A bunch of us chatting on Facebook or some other forum? Plenty of that out there already.
