Beatles Degree

   This makes me laugh. It just shows that there are so many phony degrees out there. I guess they need phony degrees for the affirmative action. If this program expands to a pHd, I can see a bunch of nobodys running around calling themselves doctors.

Does it bother you that you have to face the dome and the rock to say the sh'ma?

I feel so inadequate, I'm only school to study enterprise level computer network engineering, definitly not as useful as expertise in the Beatles. I wonder if this will open the door to mastery in Brittany Spears, and if PHD's will be offered in American Idol History.   :laugh:

I wonder if they have a class on how to play the Bass guitar while looking like Paul McCartney.  :laugh:

Who needs to learn the intricacies of IOS and useless things like packet analysis and latency when you can master the proper intonation of "yeah, yeah, yeah"?

Not until you pass the prerequisite class "How to play bass lefty".

I have a degree in Beatleology or as you lay-people call it "Beatles studies".  My major was corny film clips and I minored in goofy outfits.  My masters thesis was entitled:  "She loves you to Let it Be:  Modalities in trend, hype, and hysteria"

I plan to pursue Grateful Dead studies next fall.  I won't be able to fail.  My professor won't remember anything.

You know, despite their being leftists I actually really like the work of the Beatles. They occupy a warm place in my heart through certain times of mine growing up and they blow those pigs the Stones out of the water.

Okay, but a degree program???  Master's, no less.  But it's not like there's no precedence...

I like the Beatles' music too.  You know what makes their music so good?  Three words:  Sir George Martin.
Any time a rock band has the benefit of a real orchestrator, of course their music is going to be good.

This class isn't about the Beatles, it's about a rejection of Biblical religious values and a promotion of socialism and the left-wing values that go along with that philosophy. Most college classes turn into that anyway, but this class would be all about that. Imagine having to write a paper about the song "Imagine" and it's "great peaceful message".
