In recent months, Ted Janicki has done most of his teaching late at night or during the dark, still hour around 4 a.m. That's when the Mount Olive College professor rose early to beat his three roommates to the computer in the cement building where he lives.
Janicki, a captain in the Air Force Reserves, has taught computer science to his North Carolina students at a distance of 7,100 miles. He is serving in Afghanistan.
He never met his American students, and some of them weren't even sure how to pronounce his name. While they slept, Janicki graded their tests or tapped out e-mails about their assignments.
