SUNY brings classroom into students' homes by CARA MATTHEWS


Dwight Schuman returned to school last summer to study adolescence education, 11 years after he left college with a less-than-stellar grade-point average.
Despite having a busier life now - a full-time job assisting potential customers at Sutherland Global Services in Rochester, and a wife and family - he has managed to squeeze in seven classes at Monroe Community College, four of them online.
And he has made the dean's list. Maturity and motivation, plus a good computer and the growing availability of so-called "distance learning" courses have helped him greatly.
"You have to be disciplined to do it. You really have to be focused," the Henrietta, N.Y., resident said of his online classes.
