"The Morality of Murder" by Michael Sandel (Harvard)
Watch it on Academic Earth
I found this new website- www.academicearth.com. You can watch lectures from top professors from the nation's best universities. You can narrow down your search to specific categories; even upload/share them with friends. Very cool!
