High cost of gas drives online classes

The New York Times has an interesting story where the high cost of gas is driving up online class enrollment.  Online class enrollment is up 35%.  Colleges from Massachusetts and Florida to Texas to Oregon have reported significant online enrollment increases for summer sessions, with student numbers in some cases 50 percent or 100 percent higher than last year. 

Is this effecting your organization?
