Pitzer College this fall began offering what may be the first course about the video-sharing site. About 35 students meet in a classroom but work mostly online, where they view YouTube content and post their comments..."


Sounds like my type of class.

A perfect example of the retrograde nature of education, knowledge, and meaning, in the United States university system.....the prof is probably fresh out of another diploma mill, teaching the next generation, of useful, expendable morons. Ah yes....see, right here, " a media studies professor" at a relatively insignificant, liberal arts college in Claremont....

then they quote the student whose use of his native tongue, is already slipping into truncated garble..."YouTube is "a phenomenon that should be studied," student Darren Grose said. "You can learn a lot about American culture and just Internet culture in general."

and "just" (filler word or phrase, similar to "uhh", "you know", and "like"
....another casualty of war, taking out a loan to get stooopider.....

Societal breakdown, at accelerated rates....Come on In, there's room for more!!!
