Duly Noted
Dostoyevsky’s notes did get published. But did you know that UC has rules against students publishing notes taken in class? There are websites which make a business of publishing student classnotes. Scroll to the bottom of this entry for an example. UC threatens legal action when notes from its classes are distributed.
According to CaliforniaWatch:
…The policies raise questions about whether instructors or students have copyrights to the notes students take in class. While the California Education Code prohibits students and others from selling class notes – and many campuses have policies that also ban unauthorized note-selling – critics say students, not instructors, own the copyright to their own notes.
