Free College: A Liberal Idea Worth Trying

I think the MIT program is a "put up or shut up" offering. Anybody who hasn't looked at it shouldn't judge it. It is video of the actual courses, with the major league professors lecturing actual MIT students. Because it's video, it can be rewound or paused if you miss something. It offers students a way to form study groups. There is a difference between "education" (in the institutional and political sense) and knowledge, I admit. But if you want to learn something, MIT is offering a real opportunity. Check it out. Do you know that a job interview at Amazon can consist of a couple of days solving increasingly difficult computer programming problems? No BS. Thank you MIT.
