Georgia Southwestern State Universitys online Bachelor of Science in Information Technology has been ranked as one of the top twenty Best Buys in the country by the education web site GetEducated.com, a consumer group that rates, ranks, and verifies the cost and credibility of online universities.
GetEducated.com ranked the University System of Georgias (USG) WebBSIT program sixteenth in the nation, out of 88 schools. Georgia Southwestern is one of only six schools within the USGs WebBSIT program.
Southwesterns program is taught through the School of Computing and Mathematics. Known for its quality, affordability, and commitment to student service, this program was started to meet the needs of busy professionals who saw the benefits of continuing their education, but knew it would be tough to juggle their career and family responsibilities with a standard class schedule.

Regis hosts worldwide conference for "higher education at the margins"
Posted: at 8:36 am
Education leaders and innovators from 30 countries gathered at Regis University in Denver for a four-day conference designed to re-envision a program that provides online higher education for refugees living in camps around Africa.
"It's a collaboration across many universities worldwide with a common mission; and that is to serve others who live at the margins," said Steve Jacobs, conference chair and assistant vice president for academic affairs at Regis.
The term "margins" in this case refers to three refugee camps in Kenya, Malawi, and Syria. During the two year pilot program, faculty at Regis and other Jesuit universities have provided curricular, instruction, and technology support on a volunteer basis.
"That's one of the strengths of the Jesuit network," Jacobs said. "We are motivated by many of the same value sets."
The overarching Jesuit mission states "ours must be a dialogue, born of respect for people, especially the poor, in which we appreciate and share the values of their culture and offer our own treasures."
"This program is very much in line with the Jesuit values," Jacobs said.
Three primary goals guided the conference agenda this week: sustainability, transferability and scalability.
"How do we get more university commitment, how do we increase this program for refugees in a smart way that we don't burn out, and thirdly, what is the curriculum that the refugees actually need," Jacobs said.
This thoughtful process and program has now gained attention from the United Nations. Vincent Cochetel is the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees' Regional Representative for the United States and the Caribbean, was the conference's keynote speaker on Wednesday.
"This Jesuit program is unique in that it focuses on higher education," Cochetel said. "All the graduates are finding work or giving back to their community."

Emotion won't get in Wayne Smith's way

TONY SMITH
OPINION: Make no mistake Wayne Smith is no misty-eyed sentimentalist.
The ex-All Black admits some of the best years of his life were spent in the Canterbury No 10 jersey when he guided Grizz Wyllie's great team to Ranfurly Shield glory.
He also treasures his time as head coach of the Crusaders, who he steered to Super 12 titles in 1998 and 1999.
But that was then this is now. Smith has spent the past week plotting how to beat his old team. He's the Minister of Defence in the Chiefs' coaching Cabinet and winning is the paramount part of his portfolio.
But as he takes his seat at Napier's McLean Park tonight he may sneak a peek at three former charges in the Crusaders' coaching box and feel a justifiable surge of pride.
When Smith became Crusaders coach in 1997 a rugby scribe asked him "what do you think of your players?"
"I remember saying, `I will know in 20 years'," Smith recalled this week.
Fifteen years on, he likes the cut of their jib.
Smith can reflect on his role in shaping the careers of "foundation Crusaders" Todd Blackadder, Daryl Gibson and Dave Hewett, the prop he promoted in 1999 the troika coaching the Crusaders in Napier tonight.
