Class for Athletes and One Other Guy Ideas

[BuzzLaw]

Econ 2018: we give each athlete/student $50,000 and they let us know if they do a good job managing it.

This.

Is it a class or a lab? Ought to be a way to split it up for more credit hours.

Giving them the money constitutes the class, while their rationale for how well they've managed it is the lab.

Need a class for playing video games. Skiles already has a lab for it...or did 10 years ago anyways

Automotive Technology

Student-Athlete is given a car that must be returned to the dealership at prescribed service intervals. Healthy stipend for service included.

Genius. How can we get this to Bud?

If UNCheat can skate with fake classes, this should be more than acceptable in NCAA's eyes.

Brilliant.

It'll be sort of interesting to see who chooses to invest in the stock market, and who chooses to invest in real estate, automobiles, a down retail sales industry, or the new-but-booming recreational drug market (now decriminalized in ATL).

Slip it in with the new transgender program and I'm sure it'll pass right through.

My plan begins with us hiring Rick Pitino.

Tracking that will be the job of the non-athletic students in the class.

Textile Engineering 1703: Quality Control in Urban Apparel

Athletes plus one other student receive, oh, I don't know, maybe a little less than $400 of various, name-brand apparel from a professional buyer. (Maybe someone's cousin is available to help out with that part?) Wear said apparel around campus and to various nightclubs and parties for the semester and report back how they held up.

 

[Dirty Jacket]

Just don't let anyone's cousin give any tshirts away at the end of the semester commemorating The class. for the love of Dodd

It would be... provided we opened this class to students who aren't also athletes.

You are on the right track here. It is not a coincidence that UNC put these fake courses under African American Studies. I bet if you checked around the nation you would find many of the African American studies programs are doing just what UNC is doing. So, put your fake classes under some protected class banner and if anyone even smirks at it, label them a bigot or worse.

By the way, is UNC continuing to offer fake classes in African American studies? They would be crazy to stop now.

Calculus 17.6. Random number theory. Any numerical answer is correct, but no one will ever think to challenge the class.
