Much of the news surrounding the University of California system has involved whether the network of universities will be able to survive its current budgetary crisis without shrinking in size or quality, writes Steve Kolowich for Inside Higher Ed. In that context, it is no surprise that Christopher Edley Jr's plan to use online education to expand the university's footprint "from Kentucky to Kuala Lumpur" has turned some heads - and churned some stomachs.

Edley, dean of the law school at the University of California at Berkeley, has been using his position as co-chair of the education and curriculum working group for the UC Commission on the Future to advocate an ambitious expansion of the system's online arm that could eventually include fully online bachelor degree programmes designed to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars. California is not the only state eyeing online education as a way to increase access and cut costs.
