When asked in a course evaluation, “what could be improved about the course”, one of Bob Murphy’s students wrote:
You’ve hit much higher than any of my expectations, and I don’t think I have enough imagination to find something to improve. Perfect quality, low price. Nothing you can improve if you ask me – oh, one easy way for you to do even better is to, err, well, you could actually pay the students to take the class. Seriously, it’s so cheap, Harvard and Yale should be the only one complaining here”
Of course Bob’s teaching quality only ever continues to improve, and now our prices are even lower! So sign up for an online Murphy course today!

I can’t wait to get a job (I’m one of those “PhDs without a job”), so that, with money coming in, I can spend some on Mises Institute’s books. And on top of my list is Murphy’s “Lessons for the young economist”.
With respect augusto, that’s not much of an advertisement LOL!
I love the idea of these classes and I see the value in paying the money to actually interact and ask questions. Is there some type of video archive available after a class has completed? Other schools like Berkley and MIT offer videos of their lectures. The ability to download these archives videos would be especially useful (and extremely educational) for those of us that do not have reliable broadband at home.
Yes, all lectures are recorded and made available to the students throughout AND after the course.
But to only students?
If you cannot make those archives freely available, what about having one price for actually participating in the course and another, lower price to access course archives? Maybe even a general membership fee that will grant you access to all course archives.
Excludable intellectual property — it has its uses after all?
A very easy distinction escapes you. Password-protecting a directory is actually not an instance of taking recourse to intellectual property.
