Academy Revolutionizing Online Higher Education The ideas to revolutionize online higher education grew out of one professors online teaching assignment at a small southwestern Christian liberal arts college in the fall of 2001. With an administration and board of trustees apparently stuck trying to attract students to their remote campus in the high desert, the professor recommended expanding online curriculum rapidly in order to improve enrollment and attract an international diverse student body. That voice belongs to Professor Fred DiUlus, the CEO & Founder of Global Academy Online, Inc. The Washington DC based provider of transparent, private-label, turn key curriculum and instruction. It has a patent pending system that may well prove to be the savior of the marginalized liberal arts campuses struggling to compete online with campuses with an endless resource of money. As an applied ethics and entrepreneurship studies professor, DiUlus discovered his system while teaching a course he had created online called Freedom, Ethics & Free Enterprise. When he made his recommendation to the Dean of his department and the President of the college, he dreamed of bringing the small liberal arts institution the wonders of advanced online delivered education. With it, he felt he could attract a world-class faculty, evolve multiple degree choices, and introduce innovative online curriculum. He was convinced, he said, that "the little college would draw students from around the world like bear cubs to honey." Few agreed with him. DiUlus, convinced online education was the next tsunami to hit higher education resigned his position and launched the Academy in 2002. By the Fall of that year he introduced his transparent online course delivery and instructional system. The system requires no capital outlay, no additional in-house financial resources, no additional faculty and not a single dollar in development. "Any college", according to DiUlus, "no matter how small, will with our system, be fully capable of adding qualified, accredited curriculum and instruction online in up to 31 disciplines and degree programs. Professor DiUlus agrees with the late Peter Drucker, the father of modern management, who cautioned educators at the turn of the 21st century that brick and mortar colleges will no longer exist in a generation. With The Academy as their silent partner, notes DiUlus, "At risk institutions will survive Drucker\'s ominous prediction and live on to compete with any college or university while being able to draw students from anywhere on the globe. They will" he went on, "do it to such an extent, they cannot even begin to imagine." He concluded, "We offer the future." DiUlus makes his home in New Mexico. Global Academy Online, Inc. is headquartered in Washington DC.
