Online degrees are offered through most of the world's most prestigious universities. The same instructors who teach in the classroom also proffer online instruction and courses, using the same texts, same assignments, and same grading structure.
You seem to have a bone to pick with online training. Do you suppose something magical happens if someone plains their ass in a seat to read the text, as opposed to doing so 2,000 miles away in a hotel room? Aside from online training requiring a considerably higher level of discipline and dedication to balance an education against other life demands, what is it that you think diminishes either an online education or one in-situ as a resident, by a university offering online training? Have you ever taken an online university class? Would you know?

Yes, you do learn more in person. You learn hearing the thoughts and ideas of the professor as well as other students engaging in the free exchange of discussion and debate. Many ideas, or statements, are easily misunderstood when in text form only. That said, if the minimum knowledge can be given, retained and verified, then online learning should remain an option.
The comment was more a general observation that the education system is a failure (including online); full of safe spaces, pink hats, political correctness and outright indoctrination that isn't even hidden anymore.
Yes, I would know. I've done both.

No, I have a bone to pick with the education system being used as an indoctrination tool, censorship of thought, speech and ideas.

Back on topic. Anything else about the 777's being delivered, or just Omni in general?
