Distance Learning Instructor Matt Manfred reminded me that the world would be a much bleaker place without The Peanuts Gang and Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream!

Did you know that Charles Schulz, Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield were distance learners? It's true!

Charles Schulz learned do draw by taking correspondence courses with Art Instruction Schools. He even became a teacher there after he returned from World War II!

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield took a correspondence course in ice cream making from Penn State, and the rest is ice cream history!

Thanks for the reminder, Matt!
