Jones International University |
|
| Glenn R. Jones, chancellor of Jones International University (JIU), has devoted much of his life to his passionately held belief that education should be available to everyone, everywhere. The Jones companies have been working to further that goal since 1987, with the launch of Mind Extension UniversityT (ME/UT ), a cable television network that enabled 30,000 students to take courses from over 30 colleges and universities via television.
In 1993, Mr. Jones founded JIU, the first university to exist entirely online. And, in 1999, JIU became the first fully online university to be accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, a member of the North Central Association, an accrediting body for institutions of higher education in the United States. The majority of JIU's students are working adults, generally balancing both career and family at the time they decide to continue their educations. For many of these individuals, a campus-based institution is simply out of the question, between scheduling conflicts, business travel, and childcare issues. These are among the individuals for whom JIU was created.
