Sounds wonderful!
Is this like Open Yale from which I am doing a course in Milton, the 17th century English Poet ?

Sounds like a great class. I'm a birder.

I don't think it's like that -- this course was specifically designed for home study -- it's not taken from an actual Cornell course.

How do you like the Open Yale course? I've thought of doing one of those, or something similar offered by MIT.

Tons of fun!
For the price of the book and postage you can feel like you are right there. The Professor sips water from his plastic cup, tells you how he has a sore back and didn't sleep well and adds wryly "What for the night if not to sleep?" which he had 10 min before quoted in context from a poem!
I sometimes even wear a beret to feel student-y. I could also wear pyjama's of course.
