Perhaps, although it may be an issue whether Georgia state law supersedes the
federal copyright laws.
Part of the issue in fair use, as I understand it, involves "face to face"
presentation (generally okay). So there is a bit of a question as to whether or
not a web site restricting access to registered students meets this kind of
criterion.
