Is there a good way to learn materials on your own and then receive college credits for them? I'd kind of like to get a second degree but don't have any interest in paying for more than one or two semester's worth of classes.

Unis want to make money, at least in burgerland. Their money making power comes from a monopoly on respectable certification. If they even recognized the fact that everything people pay $100,000 to learn in undergrad can be learned in one's free time, and let you get credit and certifications for it, ((((((they))))))'d lose that power.

I thought I heard of MIT giving away free online classes and such though?

It really depends on what it is you are wanting to do with the degree.
There are a lot of jobs that experience can fill the void of a degree, as long as you have some kind of evidence that you know what you're doing, but it all really depends on what the subject is.
What do you want/need a degree for?
