The university has offered a fair share of oddball classes over the years, including Witches and Witchcraft, Knights of Old & Harry Potter and Sexing the Past, among many others.
Witches is a great class, one of the best I took at Georgetown, but Sexing the Past? Is that like sexing the borders?
We admit that the average Georgetown student doesn’t need a class to learn how to drink, but we nevertheless urge the university to create a wine tasting course similar to Cornell’s. Such a class could teach students how to approach wine in restaurants and retail stores, how to pair wines with particular meals and how to shop for wine intelligently. It would almost certainly attract a large number of students, and would likely promote further interest in cultural studies. The university prides itself on educating the “whole person” — doesn’t that include taste buds?
Let me get this straight. You want to pay approximately $3,000, rather your parents to pay $3,000, to taste wine? You should be kicked out of Georgetown for fucking stupidity. Here's a tip -- go to a free wine testing. Morons.
