[Online Colleges/Universities]

That sounds really interesting. I loved linguistics too. One way that you can tell if a online college degree is legitimate is by looking into its accreditation. Accreditation should be from a recognized body. For example, ACCSC provides for Independence University accreditation which makes it reputed college. Though the college does not offer a language course but it does offer programs that prepare students for in-demand careers. I hope you can find the course you’re looking for at from a good online institution.

[College search and selection - "steering" your dc - long and rambling]

Duke University, I heard its good plus its warm there.They are pretty good in sports too, popular for basketball. It was highlighted in One Tree Hill series too :)

[Sports Management]

Coaching is different than Sports Management.

Sports Management is the business end of the program: the AD, marketing, sales, finances, etc. They usually major in Sports Management (a relatively new major,) business, finance, etc.

[Does anyone else read college reviews when searching?]

I completely understand your plight! Reading college reviews can be a real test of your patience…especially when it’s hard to know which ones are trustworthy. The Stevens Henager student reviews seem positive but I think the next step is to contact someone who has actually attended college there and ask what their experience was like.

:)

[back to school...]

I look at children' education as a partnership between themselves and the school. Children enjoy school, and they enjoy coming home to relax, and just be themselves.

[reality check about whether to be upset]

I would say go with option B but would probably include a word about the necessity of collecting email and/or phone numbers to better communicate.

[Self Education Vs. College Degree ?!]

Another option you might want to consider is finishing your degree online. I just read a few Stevens-Henager reviews – they seem to have a good reputation with recognized accreditation and you can stay at home, or work while simultaneously finishing your degree. Seems like it might be a good fit for you.
