A friend asked me today to check into resources for Catholic online graduate education, i.e. distance learning programs, regarding a Masters degree in theology or philosophy.

Do any of you have any opinions or advice? Specifically:

– Several programs my friend has looked at offer the same course work on campus as online. Are online degrees still looked down upon when looking for a job (e.g. a teaching position) in a Catholic context, or is the “I got my degree on the Internet” stigma going away?

– Have any of you heard of Holy Apostles College in Cromwell, CT? There’s a JPII Center for Bioethics there that looks pretty good – are any of you familiar with professors or graduates from there? Are there any other distance learning programs available in the US that you’ve heard are good (or bad)?

I don’t know from nuthin’ about this. Anyone? Bueller?
