• Abstract: "A group of professors and graduate students from around the world has started a new university of their own online, with an unusual model that is more like a book group than a traditional course," reports the Chronicle of Higher Education.
  
  "The new institution, called Peer2Peer University (for peer to peer), was announced last year and was originally slated to start offering courses in January. But logistical issues forced the fledgling project to delay its official opening until last week."
