You Have a Degree in That? Weird College Majors

September 14, 2010 | Featured, Humor, Strange

Professional Nanny

Many programs exist where high school students and even people in their early twenties can get certified as babysitters. These classes are usually just the span of a few nights over a week or two where they learn the basics of establishing trust with the parents of children, fundamental child care, and of course first aid. What if you want to make a career of this former after school or summer job? The Sullivan University in Kentucky offers a curriculum aimed specifically at those who wish to be professional child care givers—whether in a private residence, day care center, pediatric wards of hospitals, or any other variety of corporate child care offerings.

Astrobiology

Aliens are a huge area of fascination in our modern society. Science fiction in books and movies is huge business, but some people are wanting to reach out further. What if E.T. really is out there? In the United Kingdom the University of Glamorgan acutally offers a degree in astrobiology—the study of finding life and biological organisms beyond the planet Earth in the multitude of solar systems that exist out there. These students learn the complexities of life in addition to searching techniques to be used when investigating outer space. If you want to be a real, legitimate alien hunter, getting a degree in astrobiology is certainly a good start.

Retail Floristry

Even though the majority of jobs at your local flower shop does not require much education past that of high school or its equivalency, having a college degree in retail floristry can certainly come in handy if you are wanting to start your own shop. Rather than running the cash register or cleaning out the expired merchandise, students are trained the art of floral design showcases, special event gardening, and the business behind the flower petals. You can find this program at Mississippi State University, and most students get salaried positions right after graduation if they don’t go through the laborious and long process of starting their own floral business upon program completion.

Master Ranching

While the word “ranch” can simply conjure ideas of rough and tumble cowboys or just a creamy white salad dressing, ranch management has become a huge business. Developments in biological engineering, livestock management, and goods transportation have turned this generation to generation training into something that could certainly use the help or extensive training provided by a degree in the specialized sciences or even an MBA if one wants to break into the business or move up the professional ladder within it. Texas A&M University in Kingsville actually offers a master’s degree program in ranch management. Several other colleges in places with a firm foot hold in ranching or multiple ranches in the nearby area have started to offer this special curriculum, but Texas A&M is currently the only place offering a graduate program. Do not think that just because these people trudge around campus in worn out jeans and work boots means they are taking a vow of poverty in their profession either. Graduates of the master’s degree program can expect a salary of $50,000 to $75,000 annually.

Most of those majors seem quite normal to me. Also – in Belgium there are dozens of colleges where you can major in comic book art and the students there actually learn quite a lot about culture and language. It’s not only about drawing.

ASIANS CAN ACTUALLY READ MINDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
they can hear and see what your visually thinking
this is the absolute complete truth

The reason a lot of Asians have completely expressionless faces, segregate from everybody else-only associate with Asians and don’t associate with non Asians that much, and are very unfriendly in general is to avoid accidentally revealing that they can read minds. If all over a billion Asians where to show facial expressions all the time just as much as non Asians, integrate and associate with non Asians much more, and be much more friendly and talkative, then a lot of them might accidentally reveal that they can read minds by accidentally showing a facial expression or dirty look when someone thinks, or visually pictures something in their mind they don’t like, find astonishing, or funny etc because those people might see that and and really wonder what that was that just happened there and see the connection, and they might accidentally say something similar to what the person was just thinking and going to say. If they all associated with non Asians a lot more then there would be a lot more people around for them to accidentally show facial expressions when those people think things they don’t like etc, so they segregate and only associate with Asians so there won’t be anyone around for them to see that and have any accidents happen in the first place.

Think about it, it’s not normal how a lot of them act, it’s not normal human behavior! and the entire way they act is all to hide their mind reading abilities, it makes perfect sense to do all of that to hide that they can read minds, because all of that is the perfect way to do it!
Every single Asian alive is hiding their mind reading abilities, they don’t want ANYBODY to know that they can read minds, they will always deny that they can read minds, they will lie about having mind reading abilities forever!!!
Because they value hiding their mind reading abilities more then their own lives!
That’s why nobody knows about it!

Try thinking, best yet visually picturing in your mind something absolutely crazy as you possibly can when you are around Asians, and try looking for Asians who give people particular looks, especially dirty looks for what appears to be for completely no reason, that is them giving people looks when they hear and visually see someone thinking something they don’t like, find astonishing, or funny etc.
It still happens spite a large percentage of Asians having completely expressionless faces all the time, it would just happen a lot more if none of them had completely expressionless faces all the time, it’s still not uncommon!

I know this may sound crazy, impossible and unbelievable, BUT IT ISN’T CRAZY WHEN ITS TRUE

You all have to spread the message!!!!!!
The world has to know about this!!!!!!

I agree with Vos – more than half of the list is actually courses that can get you a decent job. It’s not weird, just because you haven’t heard of it. Like when people ask me what software do we use at my accounting class – I said QuickBooks, and they were like: “What?”. Can’t blame people if they’re not updated about the latest stuff.

If you want to talk about REAL weird courses, I read on another blog that there was a study regarding The Simpsons, Star Trek, Starcraft and stuff like that!

the reason alot of asians have completely expressionless faces, only associate with asians and dont associate with non asians very much is to avoid accidentally revealing that they can read read minds, if all over a billion asians were to show facial expressions all the time just as much as non asians, associate with non asians much more, and be much more friendly and talkative, then alot of them might accidentally reveal that they can read minds by accidentally showing a facial expression or dirty look when someone thinks, or visually pictures something in their mind they dont like or find astonishing or funny, and if they were all to associate with non asians alot more there would be alot more people around for them to accidentally show facial expressions when those other people think things they dont like, so they only associate with asians so there wont be anyone around for them to see that and have any accidents happen in the first place

i know this sounds crazy, impossible, and completely unbelievable, BUT IT ISNT CRAZY WHEN ITS TRUE

the reason you think this truly is crazy, impossible and unbelieveable is because our society has propagandized people into believing that nothing extra ordinary is real and that is really is impossible, and that its crazy to think that its true that people can read minds, all just to cover up that asians can read minds! who says that cant exist? the people who have mind reading abilities who are trying to cover it up!
