There has been some discussion of late on the scholastic experience so this topic is dedicated to education. Specifically, which courses would your ideal curriculum consist of?

Would this be a curriculum for me personally, or a curriculum I think everybody should study in an ideal world?

• How to Build Your Own Time-machine.
• How to Think as Much as Fable or C. Elegans Without Your Brain Hurting.
• What the Big O Is and How to Find It.
• How to Lose 30 Pounds Without Breaking a Sweat.
• Understanding Women.
• How to Use Your Time-machine to Find the Time to Take All the Other Courses You've Always Wanted to Take.

Yes, but it they offered a course on it, we might understand them sooner!

Yes but what do you want, that is the hard to figure part

We are only too happy to give you what you want, but we don't understand what that is!

Watch that movie 'what women want' i haven't seen it, but it looks useful

(BTW: Did anyone notice my creative use of the 'list' command? I think that's the first time I've ever seen it on these boards!)

You usually have a creative way with words Gwally.

Very nice, Gwally

The time-machine I can't help you with.

But I'm apt to teach the other 4 subjects on your list

Thanks CE, I'm looking forward to it. Especially one of them....

My ideal curriculum would be...

¤Atmospheric Science
¤Meteorology
¤Weather Forecasting
¤Climatology
¤English 101

If ya'll know that the first four things are the exact same stuff... well actually it isn't but it's very close...

-How not to get sleep diprieved by staying up late on a school night
-How to get up in the morning without wanting to throttle someone
-How to get a Tim Hortons to replace the McDonald's near my house
-How to get a job and stay at home, watching tv.
-How not to drink a coke each day
-How to convince people coke is better than pepsi
-How to get a scholarship without doing homework
-How to find the time to watch my favourite tv shows, read a good book, and play hours of the Sims in one night.

You are referring to the loosing 30 pounds part, of course

Some heavy dental surgery does the trick - I don't know how many pounds I lost when I removed my wisdom teeth, they were growing downwards into the jaw-bone. I couldn't open my mouth more than a few millimeters for 2 months. I lived on energy drinks and liquid food substitutes. When I lied on my stomach in bed, I was actually resting on ribcage and hipbones.

My personal ideal curriculum:

- Learn to live without sleep
- Tolerance for ignorance: take a deep breath
- Impulse control
- How to stop compulsive flirting
- Learning to live without danger
- Understanding people
- Arabic, Mandarin, Japanese, Latin and Gaelic

Ideal curriculum for everybody:

- Philosophy, emphasis on epistemology
- Global issues
- Cross cultural studies
- International history
- Social psychology
- Information seeking
- First aid
- Empathy training
- Social skills
- How to build self confidence
- Stress tolerance
- How to kick TV addiction
