Title: Did you know?

That you can take architecture courses online from MIT for FREE!!!   :)  Every course they offer is either online now, or soon will be!

I'm going to post the link in the free resources section -- just thought I would mention it here.

Yes -- check it out!  It's something called Open Course Ware (I think).  But I've been having trouble opening the different segments of the course I was looking at -- I got mostly gibberish (computer code), except for the pdf files, which did view just fine.  If you are good with computer stuff, maybe you could take a look and see what you get.

IIRC--information, yes--book lists, lecture information, etc.; credit, no.

They announced this a while back, with nothing on the website to show for it.

Glad to see that it's (well sort of, anyway) arrived.

Glad to see this has (sort of, anyway) finally arrived.

It's almost certainly information, yes; credit/grades, no.  But also no papers to write.

At this point in my life all I really care about is useful information, don't need the credit/grades, definitely don't need papers to write  ;D;
