I feel like I've just accidentally stumbled into a goldmine! I was looking on our library site to see if we still have access to Rosetta Stone (we don't! *weeps*) BUT I discovered over 2,000 free online courses through something called "opencourseware".
They have classes from MIT (http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/web/home/home/index.htm), Notre Dame (http://ocw.nd.edu/anthropology), Carnegie Melon (http://www.cmu.edu/oli/courses/french/index.shtml), Berkely (http://webcast.berkeley.edu/course_details.php?seriesid=1906978525), and more (http://www.ocwconsortium.org/use/use-dynamic.html)! I know at one point I had to enter my library card number, but it looks like anyone can use these.
