Online degree programs have come a long way since their early days. Traditional colleges an

d universities have developed distance learning programs to accommodate individuals who would

not otherwise have the time or funds to earn an advanced degree. Online programs require the

same amount of study and work as a classroom program. If you are under the impression that c

ourses offered online will be a walk in the park, think again! Online degree programs are often

more difficult than traditional university programs due to the fact the work and study is left up to

the student. Time management skills are crucial, since there is not a particular time of the day

set aside specifically for study. It may take some time to become accustomed to this method of

scholarship, but the pros of online classes may outweigh the cons in your situation.

The main difference between online degree programs and traditional higher education is the l

ocation of learning. Instead of being confined to a stuffy classroom filled with students, these onli

ne classes have a more personal feeling. While many students would be hesitant to speak one t

o one with a class instructor, online programs find their students more willing to contact their pro

fessors via e-mail. This great participation encourages better understanding of the course materia

l. Of course, not attending a class also comes with additional barriers. A student must be equipp

ed with time management skills in order to succeed in an online class. Students that lack the pr

oper time management skills may find themselves overwhelmed with course work at the end of t

he semester or falling behind in their studies.

Whether you choose to attend a traditional college or university or enroll in an online higher

education program, the chances of success are equal. In the end, it is up to you in order to co

mplete the course of study and earn your degree. For busy individuals or students wishing to ret

urn to school without greatly affecting their everyday lives, an online degree program may be the

best option.

Thanksgiving is celebrated every year on the fourth Thursday of November. The month of November

is in autumn, the main season for harvesting crops.

The writer O. Henry called Thanksgiving the one holiday that is purely American. It is not a religiou

s holiday. But it has spiritual meaning.

Thanksgiving began with the first European settlers in America. They gathered their crops, celebrated

and gave thanks for the food.

Tradition says Pilgrim settlers from England celebrated the first Thanksgiving in 1621. There is evide

nce that settlers in other parts of America held earlier Thanksgiving celebrations. But the Pilgrims’ Thank

sgiving story is the most popular.

The Pilgrims were religious dissidents who fled oppression in England. They went first to the Netherl

ands. Then they left that country to establish a colony in North America. The Pilgrims landed in 1620 i

n what later became known as Plymouth, Massachusetts.
