Northern Michigan University is now offering a degree in marijuana.

The times, they are a-changin'

I bet growing it would be pretty interesting. I'm moving to Colorado next year, so maybe I'll find out one day. Gonna stick with studying psychology and computer science, though.

Those vary in weirdness coefficient from raised eyebrow all the way to lolwut pear.

(Btw, did you notice the URL cites 35, but the article only includes 34? I wonder what missed the final cut.)https://www.fastweb.com/career-planning/articles/the-35-weird-but-cool-college-majors

I think Knightly Celt might be interested in #4

#6 caught my eye.

6.    Beatles, Popular Music and Society

What you study: The degree program lets students “examine the significance of the music of The Beatles in the construction of identities, audiences, ethnicities and industries, and localities.”

Where you can get the degree: Liverpool Hope University (UK)

Example courses:  Understanding Popular Music, Musicology and The Beatles and Topics in History: Liverpool

Job prospects: Popular music studies specialist, Beatles historian

Studying the effect music has on society would be very useful, although focusing only on the Beatles might be too limiting.
