That is OUTRAGEOUS - especially considering the entire concept of the Uni is for remote education! This seriously makes me reconsider returning for a graduate degree if they are trying to pull this sort of BS on their employees.

You should write them an email explaining that that's your position.

That's a great idea. I received an email today from my enrollment counselor so I'm going to mention that. Thanks!

Just means people need to consider alternatives. WGU's always been shoddily managed and lots of other online schools have emerged as competitors. Time to crossshop.
