The inquiry is related only to some possible inconsistencies related to IBM's point of sale (POS) unit, which is only responsible for around US $300 million of revenue. The SEC has not revealed anything about the inquiry, but IBM has said that it stems from an earlier inquiry related to this business unit. More details here. Either way, anyone that is shouting "Enron!" at this is either foolish, uninformed, or possibly both.
I currently attend the University of Arizona and I have taken a handful of CS classes (I am an Engineering student). None of them have been web based, they have all been typical lecture style classes. I do not know of this web only degree, it might be some type of correspondence program. If you want to go the typical route to a degree in CS at the U of A, it is just like any other four year university (Calculus, Physics, etc)
