As I recall, Harrison-Middleton offers a Doctor of Arts, Doctor of Education, and Master of Arts all rooted in a rather personalized great books curriculum.

I took Great Books at Michigan and it was one of the great experiences of my life. My professor, H. Don Cameron, kind of looked like what I thought Homer should look like and we had just the greatest discussion group and TA, Stephen Sheehi, ever. I graduated in 1997 and I still chat with now-Dr. Sheehi on Facebook. Just a great thing all around. In quiet moments, I sometimes think to myself, "Hehe, I have read the Great Books."

I also have a complete set of the Encyclopedia Britannica Great Books which is kind of useless given that everything is in the public domain and can be downloaded to an e-reader, but my mom bought them at a garage sale and in quiet moments, I sometimes think to myself, "Hehe, I own the Great Books."

Just wondering (I can't remember), is the Great Books the same thing as the Great Courses? When I read this, the first thing that popped into my mind was... For some reason I am thinking of the Great Courses that's offered at Kanopy and is used in the Onlinedegree.com courses.

how can they call it "Great Books" when they don't even have any of the Harry Potter series in here ?
