So we are exploring ways to bring this program to them. The task force also hopes to involve the University's Madrid campus in the burgeoning technology. Of particular interest to the task force is bringing some of the University's nursing programs to the overseas campus. Much remains to be done before distance learning becomes a major component of the Saint Louis University experience, but members of the task force are optimistic that things will continue to move forward quickly.

Plans also are in the works for faculty training on uses for the new technology.
Our task force is hard at work to make our goals in this venture a reality.
