Take an online course in media law during winter break

While you're home from college for the holiday break, you can earn college credits studying media law -- all while lounging in your living room.

CubReporters.org's founder Mark Grabowki is teaching an online course on "Mass Communication Law" through Adelphi University, where he's a professor. The 3-credit classes feature video lectures, interactive exercises and class discussions, all of which can be done through your computer. You never need to set foot in an actual classroom.

In the 3-week class, students learn about the First Amendment, free speech, copyright, libel, protecting confidential sources, getting government records, cyberspace issues and other media law issues from a lawyer and former journalist.
