Ursus Posted June 20, 2012 Report Share Posted June 20, 2012 Someday you can get a free online certificate from Harvard (but not a degree). So how many of you would take the classical history, archaeology and language courses? http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-18191589 The online courses are promised to be as rigorous as anything else from MIT or Harvard - but successful students will get a "certificate of mastery" and not a degree or any formal university credit. It's being set at arm's length from what's on offer for the paying customers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
