Courses for the Virtual Campus are co-taught by faculty at Bard and Smolny Colleges and include students from both institutions. Students learn using a combination of local classroom discussions, on-line exchanges, and video-conferencing. The Virtual Campus held its first joint courses during the Spring 2003 semester.
