I'm sure even selling notes from lectures or books isn't legal or allowed.

Of course it is. At Rutgers they have two different stores that ONLY sell notes from lectures. Great for lazy students who miss alot of lectures.

1st Class Knotes was the name of one of the shops.. Cant remember the other.

So the school is selling notes?

No. Private shops on or near campus selling notes...

I'm pretty sure it's not legal to copy from others intellectual property other than fair use. So selling notes without permission isn't above board.

The notes are the intellectual property of the person who TOOK the notes. Making it perfectly legal for him/her to sell said notes.

In the case of the stores selling notes, they pay people who take good notes for the rights to copy and distribute them to others.

That doesn't mean they didn't pay for the notes in order to resell them. I'm pretty sure USF isn't alone in those rules. I think it's pretty common copyright stuff.

I could care less about selling notes.

 

[Cristatus]

If you think this is bad, somebody sent an e-mail to a lot of people, using the blackboard mailing list, regarding a lost grinder. I had no idea what that was about, until one of my classmates also opened the e-mail, and told me that it was most probably a weed grinder.

Seriously: how do people get away with this?

 

[chuckywang]

I would have sent out an email offering my notes for free.

I don't care, I give my notes to whoever asks.

I'm sure most don't care. They probably only enforce it if they need to bust some balls.

Works that are derivative of a copyrighted work are owned by the owner of the copyrighted work. That is to say, the professors of the classes likely own the copyrights to those notes.
