I was searching through MITs open courseware a few days ago. The ENTIRE mechanical engineering curriculum is free oline, well, all of the lectures anyway. Was thinking of brushing up on some differential equations, too bad I don't really have the time. Ya MIT has their lectures free. They have basically all classes offered by many of their departments it looked like.

Those giant, free online classes offered by schools like MIT, Yale and Stanford are called Massive Open Online Courses (MOOC). Some schools are considering offering credit for these courses. Interesting read here:

To my knowledge, USF doesn't offer free online courses but I've seen some free audio lectures in iTunes.

    "For me, I never considered it that way (as a stepping stone), honestly. When I was offered the head job at South Florida, and I'm sincere about this, I never thought I would ever go anywhere."

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."
