<p>What's the one class that you have that you would think wouldnt even be taught in a college?</p>
<p>Mine is a comic book class where we basically talk about comic books non stop</p>
<p>Remedial Writing/English.</p>
<p>Honestly, it has come to a point where we can expect the silly Wine Tasting Major (Cornell), but somehow people overlook that dumbasses are getting into schools with no academic skills or qualifications.</p>
<p>EDIT: I never took a remedial writing course, if those are confused in reading my reply.</p>
<p>that’s mostly for international students, but way to be an ass.</p>
<p>maybe they are really good at other things like sciences, and just weren’t taught to write the same way american students were. and they were clearly perceived to be intelligent enough to survive in their other courses.</p>
<p>I wish very much that the majority of people in remedial classes were international students who for some reason didn’t learn the same things American students do.</p>
<p>It’s very far from true, but I wish it were…</p>
<p>The study of pornographic imaging. Ya…</p>
<p>I was visiting a friend of mine at her school, and I sat in a comics class which was pretty boring since I had no interest in it.
I also sat in music and social change which was very interesting and there was some really good discussion/debate going on.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>If only that were true… Then sure.</p>
<p>Sociology of North American Sport.</p>
<p>I’m in it this semester…</p>
<p>One time we spent half a class period talking about Kobe Bryant’s rape case…
And another block of time talking about how cheerleading is detrimental to the social view of women.</p>
<p>Interesting enough, although the class ‘sounds’ like a joke, it’s actually pretty darn thought provoking</p>
<p>My boyfriend took a harry potter class last semester. Now my cousin is in the advanced harry potter class.</p>
<p>I am taking rock kills communism. It’s about how rock music was responsible for the fall of communism in poland. it’s in the russia and east european studies dept.</p>
<p>My friend is in a class at Berkeley called law and order svu</p>
<p>I took a class called cultural studies but the teacher thought it was southern culture. We talked about grits for weeks, watched the movie To Kill A Mockingbird, went to eat a southern breakfast (we live in the south and eat a southern breakfast every morning) and wrote one paper on what we liked about the south. that was it.</p>
<p>@theaterbrat that’s god damn awesome</p>
<p>Canadian Studies.
My school (was) boring like that. We didn’t have any interesting/unusual classes. Canadian Studies was boring as hell though. It was a gened requirement that I had to take, but then transferred to Columbia where they don’t have the Canadian studies req., so I was bored shtless for no reason.
Lame.</p>
<p>Nonviolent Responses to Terrorism…</p>
<p>The human anus</p>
<p>Our English department offers a couple of interesting-sounding classes:</p>
<p>Sacred and Profane Love
The Politics of Pleasure
Lesbian Immortal</p>
<p>What? There is not a wine tasting major at Cornell. They have a wine tasting class (Intro to Wines) and a Viticulture and Enology major.</p>
<p>I remember reading an article detailing a pornography class at a Taiwan university. I found it interesting for those who have to show their grade to their parents. What are the implications if you get an A in that class? You study a lot by watching porn a lot? You analyze every scene very carefully?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>hahahahahaha. I can only imagine what the homework would be like in a class like this.</p>
<p>^ i bet you would, lol</p>
