Kansas university stirs debate over outsourced classes

Just how much can a college outsource and still be a college? The question is no longer just academic at Fort Hays State University in Kansas.
Under a novel arrangement, the school will accept credits from a private company that runs introductory courses in subjects like economics and English composition - listing them on transcripts under the Fort Hays State name.
To some on campus, that sounds like a restaurant ordering takeout from a rival and serving it up as home cooking.
