UC Berkeley now on iTunes U
From the “213 Wheeler Hall” desk*…
If you have ever been curious as to what those crazy UC Berkeley students learn, wonder no more. The University of California, Berkeley has placed content from various classes on Apple’s iTunes U service, which allows colleges and universities to make audio and video recordings of lectures and other material available on the iTunes Music Store. UC Berkeley offers content from 27 classes, various events, and sports highlights on iTunes U, as well as an audio tour of campus, in case you ever plan to visit. The content is free to download to not only UC Berkeley students, but the general public, so you can get a taste of the top public university in the United States (at least according to US News and World Report’s annual rankings).
In the interest of full disclosure, the writer of this article is a UC Berkeley student and may be just a little biased. 
*Wheeler Hall is home to UC Berkeley’s English department.

thinkback
Not sure if you were joking or what since I haven’t really listened to much yet, but FWIW while the campus generally leans to the left, I find the campus to be pretty politically apathetic except for a small vocal minority.
And Mac Fan, you’ll be happy to know that Berkeley College Republicans (the campus Republican club) is a fairly large group.
Anyway, let’s save further political discussion for the forums. Thanks.

Hmmm, let me listen to some of it…
“I hate Bush...�
“America is to blame for all the world’s problems...�
“It’s Israel’s occupation that is the reason they are getting bombed...�
“Christianity has killed more people than anything...�
“Don’t be a breeder...�
“We are tolerant, accept [sic] of people who don’t think like we do...�
“Besides ending slavery, fascism, communism, what has war ever accomplished?�
One of these is not the same. smile
I believe that’s the one that’s out of order

No problem, Nick.
I was just making a bit of fun. I’ll not respond to any replies after this.

Is macfan yet another disgruntled/jealous UCSC student that didn"t make the grade?
Okay, now I know I’m losing it.
Tinfoil hat time. wink
You’d have to have a tinfoil body suit with EM shielded eyeholes.
