Regents Chief Academic Officer Rachel Boon presented the annual distance education report and representatives for the University of Iowa, the University of Northern Iowa, and Iowa State University presented updates at the regents’ meeting. The report recommendations included an initial focus on expanding graduate and professional offerings before undergraduate expansion and promoting current offerings. “The board’s goal was (to) figure out how to do more distance education,” she said. “It seems to be a thing that’s serving students well.”
