seminars

From "semi" and "ars", hence any half-arsed discussion.

Monty: Hello Cuthbert, let's go spend peoples money on a pointless seminar to massage our own egos.
Cuthbert: Excellent idea, I'll bring the scones and Giles can make the tea.

Freshman Seminar

(n)-a class most freshman in Californian high schools take, it is also known as pregnancy prevention class depending on the teacher. Freshman Seminar is supposed to teach of the resources you can use throughout high school and the reasons for doing it. It tells of the many careers you can take and the backup plans you need but it succeeds in being an annoying class you text your friends to help get you out of. A class that allows you to spit, fight with the teacher and write your name in Greek.

T: Anyone of you can father or mother a child, happens all the time. You know how expensive babies are. The milk...
B: That's why you breast-feed.
T: The clothes...
B: That's why you shop at the Dollar Tree.
T: The experience of a baby nagging at you.
B: That's why we have Freshman Seminar.

Seminar

it's like a lecture in the sense that it's someone you can't stand, talking about a subject you don't give a fuck about. But this time you're supposed to participate and know what the point of it was at the end.

Alright students, in this seminar you're gonna learn how to turn this thing you've never though of into this product you don't care about. I'd like a full professional presentation by the end, including chemical formulas and industrial machines you'd use.
