No problem.
I fell asleep when you made your request, regarding online courses offered by other colleges. I have to work now, but I will post some links, either on this thread or as a separate post, within the next 18 hours.
Just enter “BCrago66” in the Free Republic search box to find it.

I’ve purchased just 1 set of DVDs from The Teaching Company, Change & Motion: Calculus Made Clear, 2nd Edition, with Michael Starbird of the University of Texas.
Not great, but pretty good, and the advantage of these DVDs is that I can learn on my own time.

I’ve ordered 8 courses on CD in the last six months or so, mostly Ancient History (Egypt, Greece, and Rome). My 12-year-old is crazy about them, too. Currently I’m listening to “Story of Human Language,” with John McWhorter. The only time I watch anything on TV (DVD) is when I’m sewing or nursing a baby!
I just emailed the Yale link to my husband to see if there’s any way I can listen to those lectures in the kitchen or schoolroom or car.

If you don’t like him, you don’t like him. But to drop him and add Toni Morrison can be done for no literary reasons, only for Marxist revisionism.
I dont like him. You are correct that he has some literary historical value. But not much.
Morrison is a pc two-fer

Any idea how to download the mp3 file of the lectures? I’d rather put them on my portable than sit at the computer to listen. Thanks in advance.

Never mind. I disabled automatically playing mp3s in my Firefox Edit -> Preferences -> Applications, and when the popup window opens, clicked on the stop button and then clicked on the 'down arrow' button to save the mp3 file.
That works, though I'd prefer that the Yale pages for this lecture series have direct links to the mp3 files. That would make downloading them much easier.

About 15 years ago I had to see what all the fuss was about bought a Toni Morrison book. I lasted 5 pages—unreadable.

thanks for the headsup...
Berkeley has similar podcasts of lectures,and
Stanford has them for Itunes... There are also similar things on video..for example
LINK... I don't use them a lot since our connection is off and on and I prefer to download. I am now retired and listen to these a lot.
