Chicago Tribune: U. of I.’s Global Campus program is still struggling

University of Illinois officials said Thursday that their Global Campus project remains behind schedule, with fewer students and less tuition revenue than expected by now.

Still, the university’s board of trustees approved an additional $3.4 million for the online classes, bringing the total board funding for the program’s first two years to $9.8 million.
