Part of speed reading is the requirement to actually comprehend the subject matter and be able to intelligently discuss it immediately after.
I've never done it myself but I do believe that if you have the opportunity and the interest that is a skill worth at least attempting to acquire.

Thanks for your input. Right now I'm only hoping she does some community college. She wants to go some place with parties. But I don't think she'd enjoy the kind of parties that I saw on my campus. She really just needs people to go rock climbing with her and such. She just needs to live in a university town and make friends at church. No need for this particular kiddo to waste money on school.

I'm going to email the teacher. She said it's a college-level course in her description, but she also said it doesn't have much homework!
