Angry And THIS is how MY tuition dollars for MY kid are being used?

Or, in THIS case, should I say........ABUSED?? (Link Courtesy The CANADIAN BROADCASTING CORPORATION/SERVICE RADIO-CANADA)

This is tantamount to the "Certificate Of Attendance" gig in U.S. schools...where the "student", for want of a better word, DIDN'T pass ANY SUBJECT....yet they DID show up everyday.........

Just THINK of it....GET COLLEGE CREDIT FOR PLAYING HOOKY FROM CLASS!

TRUTH is oftimes WAY stranger than ANY kind of FICTION!

That is what I did in some courses I took toward my liberal arts degree. But I still had to take the tests to get the B-.

Sounds like they need to offer more classes since that guy actually seems to be a popular lecturer.

A History of Christianity class, an elective (and we all know what electives are for) or somebody majoring in history or theology, who frankly would want to be there in the first place.

Sounds like he's simply giving an quicky course on modern economics.
