Issues and challenges for Non Formal Education

Very interesting how others handle the problem of more fairly distributing "higher ed". I especially noted the breadth of community involvement:

"Therefore, IGNOU, started imparting education to the professional managers, primary and secondary school teachers, computer professionals, construction-workers, medical and health personnel, Panchayat (local bodies) members, host of NGO activists. IGNOU is endeavouring to reach out to all sections and stratas of masses, who otherwise, would have remained deprived of higher education."

They are bringing the mountain to Mohammed unlike the U.S. where we say, "Get a student loan, kid."
