They are thrown on a wheel. I've recently started pulling two or three bowls off the top of one lump of clay, which has the added benefit of being better for my back (don't have to lean over as far).
I believe the classes are only for MIT affiliates. I have a "Staff Spouse" card.
In theory I like to use these as prep bowls while cooking. In practice, they're really too small even for that. I use one for kosher salt, but I now officially have more than I can use. Their saving grace is that they don't take up much room in the cupboard. :)
Interesting - I was once told by them that I was not allowed to take classes there even though my spouse was an alum. ... I miss clay so much!!!! I should try to find a way to get back to it...
