And they’re pissed that they can’t find jobs.

“students explore women’s popular and theoretical conceptions of cyberspace”

Given the audience, shouldn’t that be “contraceptions of cyberspace”?

Can’t understand WHY employers won’t hire graduates...

Examples like these are why I’m glad I didn’t spent 2-4 years at a college.

If I want anything dealing with music, I’ll go with beginner’s music theory if they have an emphasis on not performing, because I’m about as far from a guitar virtuoso as you can get.

Other than that though, what the heck kind of real-world applications would any of these classes have? Then again, you can’t indoctrinate if that seed of doubt has been planted beforehand.

The only one that doesn’t belong is the “maple syrup” one. What’s wrong with that? In a country of 300 million, we probably need a few thousand people gathering and processing the stuff to supply all our breakfast needs. So if one college is teaching one class on it, that seems about right.

Maple syrup and dogs are the only two worth a damn
and from which a person could actually learn something
worth while to use in real life.
