>> Three types of courses make up the CopyrightX Community:
>> • a residential course <http://copyx.org/courses/harvard-law-school/> on
>> Copyright Law, taught by Prof. Fisher to approximately 100 Harvard Law
>> School students;
>> • an online course <http://copyx.org/sections/> divided into sections
>> of 25 students, each section taught by a Harvard Teaching Fellow;
>> • a set of affiliated courses <http://copyx.org/affiliates/> based at
>> educational institutions worldwide, each taught by an expert in copyright
>> law.
>>
>> Participation in the 2017 online sections is free and is open to anyone
>> at least 13 years of age, but enrollment is limited. Admission to the
