One Day University October 14, 2012

One Day University brings together the nation's greatest professors from the finest schools to present special versions of their very best lectures. Each One Day U features 10-12 professors, and each "student" chooses the 5 classes they want to take. Of course, at One Day U there are no grades. No tests. No homework. Our professors are there to educate - but also to entertain!
