I could not find terse language to share with you from the US DOE website (I will share if I unearth something useful). On the other hand, Middle States offers good advice on this topic: · http://www.msche.org/documents/Distance-Education-and-the-Higher-Education-O... · http://www.msche.org/documents/implementing-the-accreditation-provisions-in-... I'm also attaching a document with the text in place for CUNY SPS (and I believe also John Jay) regarding current protocols. The modes of instruction memo is also attached (in larger font, and in full!). I look forward to continued discussion. Best, Eva Eva M.
