A degree, not an education

Review:

After much deliberation, I've decided to transfer to another institution to complete my degree.  The school is starting to rely too heavily on remote adjuncts who teach for multiple schools and are completely overextended.  It ceases to be a SUNY education when the instructors are institutional babysitters hundreds of miles from the nearest SUNY building who did not author the courses they are instructing and only silently drop in every 7 to 10 days to leave a few much-belated grades.  I would expect this from U. Phoenix or the like, but I think it's a shame that a SUNY school is going this route.  If you just want a degree, it's a great value.  Just don't expect an education.  If you're going into a field (or applying t a graduate program) where instructor recommendations would help give you an edge, steer clear of SUNY Empire State College's online establishment.
