So I thought this would be a good thread since most of us probably went to college. Lots of weird shit was taught to me at Sierra Community College in Northern California.

I will start it off:

My class had to watch a 20 minute video of Rats having sex in my psychology class.

Your turn.
 
The earth is round and the moon landing wasn't a hoax.
 
Fitness and Nutrition class.

Teacher taught us that having a few drinks before going to the gym will burn more calories.
 
I have an engineering degree. The weirdest thing was a Marxist professor teaching us about dialectical materialism in a class about scientific writing.
 
I majored in Business studies and accounting and nothing at that time was weird or infested with progressive lunacy. Today, even students that study computer science must take a course about white privilege and the literature for physics students are dated because they express male world view...
 
Went to college back in 84-87. Abnormal Sexual Behavior psychology course was awesome. Of course nowadays they would get shamed to death for calling anything “abnormal”.
 
My Anthropology Professor had us paint an object to empower us. I painted my paintball mask and he gave me an F because he said i tried to get an unfair advantage

I swear to God in heaven i am not making this shit up. Its the reason i am the way i am.
 
Boys can have vaginas and girls can have penises.
 
My American Military History Professor taught us that Hitler was misunderstood and you need to view the war through his perspective.
 
Bio-Chem.

I was required to complete a few credit hours in social-behavior sciences and cultural diversity as an undergrad including "an in-depth examination of the biological and social construction of race in western societies with special emphasis placed on examining these constructs from a historical perspective".

Today, even students that study computer science must take a course about white privilege and the literature for physics students are dated because they express male world view...

It's all mathematics FFS. Oh, wait.
 
I learned that female circumcision was a thing (that shit really disturbed me) and how the advertising industry is built on pornographic archetypes.

I also learned how to make a pipe from almost any common household object and a pen.
 
im running out of stories. my music teacher told me i was playing my guitar wrong. Sorry bro was just jamming....
 
I was taught a couple weeks ago that the Mongol Empire was harsh and intolerant, unlike Rome who left people to their own religion and culture as long as they paid tribute and didn't resist. So basically a complete mischaracterization of the Mongols. That same class used a picture of samurai last night when discussing Sun Tzu & ancient China, so now I'm sort of second guessing everything lol.
 
I went to a normal college before the cancer of progressive ideology infect Everything.
 
my fitness teacher was a transgender male and loved to show how many more pullups she could do vs me. meanwhile i was "going for a jog" and banging the hottest chick in class.
 
Man, when I went, I took allot of math and science. I had to have a diversity credit, and the only class available for the quarter was a drama literature class. I took it, and I couldn't make one complaint. I had to read 5 plays, and do little 5 minutes presentations from the play. Not even sure why it qualified as a diversity credit.

I live in Western Washington state. I don't know what happened to college campuses.
 
Had to take a sociology 101 class to be "well rounded" for my engineering degree

About 4 weeks of the class were about hippie communes, and why that means Marxism works if it were tried like that

Also that pink used to be a boys color, but apparently that's in fact true

Rest of college was pretty much flip flopping between crying while studying over how freaking complex engineering classes got 3rd and 4th year, and drinking to suppress the pain and fact that there were 4 guys to 1 girl at the college I chose :(
 
One time, I had to take this statistics class. I have no idea what the point of the class was, or what I was suppose to learn. And they made us learn to use this software called Minitab. I suppose to be some kind of stat program.

It was created by students of the Uni, and that is why they pushed the program on us.

And before that I took an art history class. The teacher just showed a painting on a powerpoint, and then gave random facts, and trivial info on the painting, the painter, a little bit of society painter lived in. So literally the history of the art itself. Come test time, it just random questions about the stuff teacher says. So is all memorization. Of course I dont pay attention because everything he says is in a text book.

So why I need to pay to sit in class, when I can read everything in the textbook? Why you paying this loser to state out loud what is written in book?
