I just learned it's against the rules at some schools, seems weird to me.  What reason would there be for this rule other than to protect bad teachers?

I always viewed my lectures as my (or the university's by contract) intellectual property. If a student wanted to record them they should ask first, so I knew who would be using it and why. The student paid to see those lectures, but like paying to see a play or movie, that doesn't give the right to record it.
Certain kinds of information should only be available to those with enough money*?
