Associate degree in general studies through distance learning Students can now earn an associate degree in General Studies at Southeastern via distance learning. Students can choose from courses delivered in a variety of electronic formats. Compressed video courses can be taken at Southeastern's St. Tammany Center, located on Koop Drive near the Interstate 12 Abita Springs exit, and the Baton Rouge Center on Essen Lane and, in some cases, at other state university campuses.
Students can take Internet or telecourses in their own homes.
Telecourses are aired on the Louisiana Public Broadcasting System and St. Tammany Parish government access channels. A special coordinator will soon be appointed to act as a consultant and advisor for the distance learning associate degree students, Doucette said.

Whether they apply online, in person or by mail, Southeastern is encouraging all high school seniors to sign up for fall 2001 as early as possible.
