When you say "approved before going online" do you mean you will get permission from the professors? I believe some legal issues may arise when you publish the notes from a college class you paid for.
Though most, if not all, of my professors don't mind if we put our notes out there, there may be eventualities you'll want to consider before doing this ostentatiously good deed.

- jff 18y agoNo, I meant approved by me, as in I check to make sure the info is ok. To the best of my knowledge, nothing stops you from walking into any lecture and listening. There are no rules (at least at any sane school I know of) against sharing notes. I don't intend to say "This is from course 0306-123, Computer Engineering on Rails", just have sections like "VHDL" and specific informative bits under that.
- weaksauce 18y agoThere are always edge cases, but that website seeks to prepare a student for a particular course with current notes from the actual course. The copied exams from the site looks to be a direct copyright violation though I did not purchase one to see if it is a scan/textual copy of the exam or a paraphrasing of it. As long gff keeps it generic he should be fine. Though, I am not a lawyer.
