Yep, you can do it using a <FilesMatch> that matches just the files
you want to open up. The following allows students to download zip,
pdf, and doc files, but only instructors get directory listings and
anything else:

AuthType Basic
AuthName "Instructors Only"
AuthUserFile /usr/local/apache/conf/htpasswd
Require user training

<FilesMatch "\.(zip|pdf|doc)$">
  Order allow,deny
  Allow from all
  Satisfy any
</FilesMatch>

The "Statisfy any" directive is the key to the whole thing.
