Converse College in Spartanburg, SC often has some pretty interesting classes. Some of the ones I’ve heard of here are classes on “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”, “iPod Tech Self”, “Stage Combat”, and a few others. Some of my friends are setting up to request classes about the music and choreography of Michael Jackson, among others.

I’ve also heard of a college in California somewhere that has a class about either Star Trek or Star Wars, one of the two. I wanna take it if it’s about Star Trek! :)

Aww, I think my zombie comment got deleted.

I’ll take out the weird creepy part and just mention that Max Brooks should make appearences in the Zombie class.

I took a class called “Beatles . . . Four Lads Who Shook the World” here at the University of Oklahoma. The professor is something else. He show up in clothes they wore from several eras. It makes perfect sense, as he is the drummer for Midlife Crysis, a classic rock cover band. They brand themselves as the “most educated” classic rock cover band because he and he band mates are professors in the music department. To add to his eccentricity, he is an accomplished bassoonist.

Which Wheaton college is the class “Forbidden Knowledge” at? My bro just graduated from Wheaton in MA and he’s never heard of it, but there’s also a Wheaton in Illinois I think…

I graduated from Kent State in 2008 and I took Adult Swim my final semester. It was a blast! I wrote my final paper on Futurama… it was just so hard to have to watch my favorite cartoon for research… j/k.
My sister took the class last semester, so now I have both the first and second edition of the ‘Adult Swim and Comedy’ book and they’re both signed by the author/instructor of the class…

I went to Central CT State University and took a course comparing and contrasting Frank Sinatra and Stephen Hawking as pop icons – unfortunately it was a one-time deal, as the topics of Honors courses change every semester. It was completely brilliant, though!

At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, you can take a class on Vampires in Literature and Film for three credits. Right now seven of my friends are enrolled in it, and they totally love it. They just watch vampire movies and read Dracula all semester long.
