ABSTRACT
A product of partnerships between Marist, IBM, Cisco, and K-12 schools, Project Greystone is an inventive solution that enhances Marist's undergraduate student body with nontraditional e-learners from high schools. Greystone includes a rich-media delivery system, virtual laboratories, a shared tuition model, and TCO-reducing autonomic computing to bring credit-bearing e-courses to K-12 students.
