It's a good point you make A.T. about teachers and students not having to find courses. I'll be using /my/ too so they'll really land right at their course. I think the powers that be are somewhat with me on this now that I've shown them how if 1 teacher names a course the same way twice it's difficult to differentiate, and that we either have to add more information to EVERYWHERE that the name shows up...or (better plan) make them unique by adding year and other info...

In any case I'm going to leave it with dups on for now and see what else breaks.

It actually works surprisingly well so far (other than not being able to tell them apart in admin interfaces).
