Math Homework Questions From Student Days

Would it be OK for me to post math homework questions as practice exams from courses taken back in my student days? Yes, I still have my math notebooks. Notebooks are a bit worn but readable. I took my last math class in the Spring 1993 semester at Lehman College.

You say?

There is a on-line maths course that objected because we were 'publishing' their worksheets. They threatened 'breach of copyright' action.

So you need to take care what you post.  If you have a question that you think is good practice for a particular exam, post it in Exercises. Post one question at a time rather than collecting up a whole set and posting all in one go.

Yes, it's acceptable. If your maths homework or practice questions are from your own notebooks and aren't from recent or copyrighted tests, you can publish them.

Sharing old 1993 class notes is acceptable!
