When I was in college we had a class on the JFK assassination that was awesome! When I was kid i went with my dad on camping trip with Southeastern because he was taking a camping class. We went to Percy Quinn state park.

The professor was really old and could hardly hear. At lights out everyone was to stay in their tent, but we waited an hour and we went into Mccomb and went to the movies with a group of his college friends. My dad was non-traditional student.

Were drugs allowed in class or did you have to partake before class?

Are those available if you don't play football for Bama or basketball for UNC?

I took a history class on Pirates my sophomore year. My final was a presentation on Pirates in pop culture, and consisted of me playing Assassin's Creed Black Flag in class.

Bowling

We bowled once a week. Our course grade was based on a short final that included a score card we had to properly fill out and the difference from our starting average to our final average.

South Park and Contemporary Social Issues


Could actually be a good class. South Park has some really intelligent satire on current events.

Washington State is about to offer a class “Leadership Lessons of Insurgent Warfare and Football Strategy”.




The professor will be the Washington State football coach Mike Leach

I would sign up for this alone.

Leach is an absolute genius.

If I lived anywhere close, I’d 100% sign up just to take this one class.

Had a class where all we did was watch popular movies from the 70s. We'd watch a movie a week. Jaws, Apocalypse Now, Chinatown, Paper Moon...it was awesome

Women’s Studies


I took this as an elective thinking there would be a class full of females in which many would be nice looking.. Well, there were two dudes in the class. Me and some gay dude.

And most of the females in the class were the type that likely didn't shave their arm pits. It was a 3 day a week class, I usually went once a week. For the final we had to right an essay about what needs to change for women to truly be equal or some shite.

Thought for sure I was going to end up barely passing the class because I was honest as frick in my essay. Just said that as a male I couldn't understand what it's like, but knew of someone who had a problem in the work place that was a result of her being female. And said that's all I can really say. I ended up getting a B in the class.

I learned that women use to use lysol to douche.
