Thumbs up to MIT

It's not often that I am impressed with a private university like MIT when it comes to making education available for all.  The prices for going to college are outrageous these days, and looking to get worse before they get better, but MIT has come up with a way to make course information available for all.  A couple years ago, they started a program that includes complete course materials for a wide variety of subjects for free public viewing online.

I discovered it last year sometime, and was then reminded of it when browsing the internet today.  If you have any interest in advancing your knowledge in a subject that isn't in your major, or one that is not offered by your college, take a look.  This would also be a great resource for students starting out their college career or who want more insight into prospective majors.  Of course, you don't get credit for doing the online classes, it's a great resource, and I give MIT a big thumbs up for this one.
