You and a few other universities that started this, is one reason I support this channel. I think it's great because it gives access to people who otherwise have no opportunity to reach higher education or be inspired by it. Thanks!

Doing this OCW made me feel like I was attending MIT and getting all the special lectures I couldn't from afar, getting to learn from experienced professors and their teaching skills has made all the difference for me.
Thank you so so much all of the MIT Professors for helping.
