Not sure about post grad but undergrad... they know their stuff in terms of DE. Tutors respond well. Check to see if course is online or you actually get print outs of the course material. Good forum interaction. CSU has way more DE than on-campus students - so you don't get forgotten about unlike other uni's...
Library will post out books (you have to return postage) or photocopy stuff for you.

When you get into postgraduate study especially at the level of masters and Ph.D, distance is really not a concept that should worry anyone because you don't really attend "classes" no matter what university you attend. At that level of study you're doing research under supervision which means you can do it anywhere.
The benefit of having a supervisor at CSU is that the supervisor knows how to teach / supervise at a distance because they deal with it on a daily basis with their undergraduate students. You might not get the same level of communication at other universities.
Distance Education is something CSU does extremely well and this is why the university doesn't need to operate as part of organisations such as Open Universities. In fact Open Universities likely replicate a lot of the structures CSU developed over the last 15 years.

Someone described Open Uni's in one of their threads really well... OUA is like Ticketek... they give you the pass to the show but they aren't the talent. The 'talent' is the individual uni's that make up the OUA consortium. Not all the uni's are adept at the whole distance ed thing. You have a different Blackboard/WebCT/Online experience for each different uni you use which gets confusing.
