    Karl Jaspers and a number of other professors gave radio lectures and then television lectures. I recall Richard Owsley telling me that while he studied at the University of Chicago, he used to see Hannah Arendt as a regular on a television discussion show. And I remember first learning about physics and algebra while watching the television programming on KERA 13 in Dallas. The local community college aired their distance learning courses on there. I would just watch them as a freshman in high school and study along even though I was not in the courses.
