Distance Option means the lectures are available online -- though I do plan to attend about half the class sessions. (One class is Monday/Wednesday and one is Tuesday/Thursday, and I have commitments on Wednesdays and Thursdays.)

And I'll still keep up with the readings, I just don't have to write papers. That's what I meant by "I don't have to do any work." A sloppy sentence construction, I'll grant, but I trusted most people reading this to know what I meant since I've audited classes a bunch.
