Hah, are you describing most of my intro classes as an undergraduate engineer? I paid an egregious sum of money to teach myself physics, chemistry, and calculus out of a textbook and get tested on it.

The real value of the lectures, especially in higher level classes, is the color that the professor adds based on past experiences that normally doesn't come out in a text book.

Whether that's worth four years and a couple hundred thousand dollars...
