<p>It would only be for faculty approved on-line courses when the regular course was full (mainly a problem at the community college level, due to open admissions there).</p>
<p>The Times article says the panel to approve the courses (which would include offerings by for-profit schools) would be 3 professors from each institute. I suspect it would be possible to find 3 in each school who would sign off on whatever they were told do.</p>
