ENRICH your learning and your life. Take a virtual trip to Indiana State University, and visit Cunningham Memorial Library, the ISU Career Center, and other services available to you as an ISU student. Identify and contact any of these services that will help you complete your degree and plan your future. If you do not have access to the Internet in your home or at work, take advantage of the internet-connected computers available to you - free of charge - at libraries and learning centers located throughout Indiana.
INTERACT as frequently as possible with your instructors and fellow students. Studying at a distance provides you with a unique opportunity to learn new, highly marketable technical and communication skills. Students and instructors at Indiana State University, and at other campuses throughout the world, are reporting a more enhanced, individualized form of communication made possible by the use of electronic mail and other communication tools.
