Hello Jerry, Currently in iOS 5 iTunes U is accessed through a separate free app that you download from the App Store, similar to the way that iBooks works; you can browse iTunes U content from that app, and also use it to access your library of iTunes U. In earlier versions of iOS iTunes U used to be another category under the Music app on your device, similar to the way podcasts appear under that app, but now you need to get the separate app to review contents.
If you want to access iTunes U content through iTunes on your computer, you need to check the box that enables it as one of your displayed libraries. On a PC I think you can do this from the "Edit" menu on the iTunes menu bar after selecting "Preferences". On a Mac, one would press Command+comma to bring up the Preferences menu, and check the box for "iTunes U" as one of the options under "Show" on the "General" tab of "Preferences" before closing the dialog window with Command+W. Then an entry for "iTunes U" will show up in the sources list, along with your music library, podcasts, movies, etc. Be aware that since some of the iTunes U content is taken from regular university courses, there may be additional download files of notes, etc. associated with the course material. Also, I recall that some courses, like the earlier Stanford University courses on programming for the iPhone, were available in both audio-only and video download formats. HTH.
