Might be worth trying out, thanks!
MIT also has free college course stuff, never tried it myself though.

I have been looking to try this out I was wondering if anyone has completed this course? if so how was the experience? I always enjoyed taking college courses on literature especially if I had read some of the books in the course. It is always fun to look at characters and passages in a different light. I also think that reading and understanding the classics help you appreciate more modern literature and stories.
