Fall term has already started on many campuses and is only a few short weeks away for the rest of the students. Even though I won't be pursuing a degree this term I still want to pursue an education. For a very brief second I thought about taking classes as a non degree student. Portland State offers several interesting classes I haven't taken yet, but one class can cost over $1000 and take up valuable time. Last year I came across a post on GIS Lounge about the abundant free online courses out there. Many college now offer a wide selection of college classes online for free, there are now several stand alone sites that provide courses for free. Though some schools offer a very slim selection of GIS courses, most have a decent geography offering. Some school however, offer a very wide selection of GIS classes. So far Penn State (http://open.ems.psu.edu/courseware) looks the most promising.
Below is a link with more free courses to check out.
