OT: Monday Funny - Post an amusing name for a fake class

[TenerHallTerror]

my brother and I were talking fantasy football this morning. I will likely win this week despite my best player (Fournette) being benched for 1 game for (allegedly) missing a team photo.

MY brother said it isn't too difficult to attend a team photo.

I reminded him Fournette did go to LSU, lol

HE says, yeah he took classes like Pick Up Book. and Put Down Book 101

I said I think he was more of an intellectual:

"Look at Book: an Existential Perspective of Sartre"



ok entertain us all with funny fake class names . . .

At Auburn, they offer a 4 credit, 400 level course: The Mechanics of Sleep.

Reminds me of the Jim herrick basketball class at Georgia.

Maybe Pitt should give credit to those that show up to football games. "An observance of futility"

 

[psuro]

At Oklahoma, they offer a 3 credit course: "How to spell O U".

 

[manatree]

Mining Engineering 318: Boring Standards

Couldn't showing up for a pitt game also be considered credit for Mechanics of Sleep?

AIDS Awareness (Andy Katzenmoyer took this at O$U)

AFAM at UNC

They started the HM 311 (Wine Appreciation) class when I was at PSU. I knew a couple of people who took it thinking it would be an easy A while getting drunk in class. They both said it was tougher then Chemistry and got C's for final grades.

 

[artsandletters]

Did they pass?

Yeah. They shanked their way to As.

That's not particularly unusual. Some universities have or had phys ed requirements and courses like that were used to satisfy them (though they were usually one credit each, not two). Usually, varsity team members got credit for their participation on the team. Further, schools that have/had these courses put a cap on the number one could take to count against overall credits to graduate, generally the equivalent of one academic course.
