It depends on the class. You watch lectures via video on the internet, some are prerecorded so there is no live lecture to attend. Some lectures are live at St. Pete, so other campuses watch the video. It really depends on the subject. There are guest lecturers with expertise in specific areas all over the state. The majority are recorded in Gainesville, with the majority of students in Gainesville choosing to watch the video instead of getting up early.

Hands-on labs, presentations, discussion groups are all live. The instructors at the distance campuses are PharmDs. Other classes have the teachers commuting. For instance, the compounding lab has the same professor who drives to the different campuses.
 
Hi

I was wondering if any one is going to the Jax campus for this fall 07. Just trying to meet people before our orientation day.

Hi

Wanted to ask you something about the insurance we have to purchase. Did you buy the annual plan or are you going to do the fall and spring seperately.
