mikejuk writes "Online Computer Science classes that have attracted tens of thousands of students have been put back for a couple of weeks. Is this on account of Sebastian Thrun's resignation from Stanford?
What ever the reason providing certificates for online students seems to be a real point of contention. James Plummer, dean of Stanford's School of Engineering said:
"I think it will actually be a long time, maybe never, when actual Stanford degrees would be given for fully online work by anyone who wishes to register for the courses."
The good news is that the delay means that there is still time to sign up."
