Distance Learning circa 1948

One of the many great things to be springing forth from the great vineyard of the net is the tools and opportunities to learn things and perhaps even get a degree of some sort out of it. Nihil sub sol novum, an example of such being the NBC University Theater. From 1948 to 1951 NBC radio aired hour long adaptations of many a great book. It is reported that Tulsa, Louisville, and Washington State Colleges had classes that offered college credits connected to listening to this series. What a country. And where are such academically minded efforts on NBC broadcasts these days? With much of old time radio there are signs and names to look for to pick out the crud from the craft, one such name is associated with this series....Ernest Kinoy. His work both on radio and tv are amazing stand outs in excellence.
