That finding could be significant as many colleges report that blended instruction is among the fastest-growing types of enrollment.</p></p></blockquote> <p style="clear:both;"> <a href="http://compliticytheory.vox.com/library/post/the-evidence-on-online-education---inside-higher-ed.html?_c=feed-rss-full#comments">Read and post comments</a> | <a href="http://www.vox.com/share/6a00c2251cfc22f219011016a48a25860d?_c=feed-rss-full">Send to a friend</a> </p> lemmingworks http://compliticytheory.vox.com/library/post/empress-of-japan-visits-the-osborne.html?_c=feed-rss-full nobody@vox.com(Jason Nolan) http://compliticytheory.vox.com/library/post/empress-of-japan-visits-the-osborne.html?_c=feed-rss-full http://compliticytheory.vox.com/library/post/empress-of-japan-visits-the-osborne.html?_c=feed-rss-full Sun, 28 Jun 2009 08:30:15 -0400 <p><br /> According to an article in the <a href="http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/the-emperor-and-the-tennis-pro/article1199494/">The Globe and Mail</a></p> <blockquote><p>On Wednesday they travel to Toronto.
