1018 <p>Plenty of Harvard graduates have traded on the fame and prestige of their alma mater, but few have done so the way Andrew Magliozzi has. The year he graduated, 2005, he started a tutoring company located steps from Harvard Yard, with a name, Veritas, that is the motto of his storied alma mater.</p>
1019 <p>Then, two years ago, Magliozzi started up a side project called Finalsclub.org.</p>

1038 <p>Computer Science professor and former Dean of Harvard, Harry Lewis, embraces FinalsClub's work and its guiding principle of open education. Even as Harvard University has not been wholly sympathetic to the FinalsClub mission, invoking the Copyright Act of 1976, assuming a similar position to other major institutions such as University of Texas, Lewis supports working towards the proverbial "temple of the free exchange of ideas." A course he taught in the Harvard Extension School was also shared freely online. </p>
