liberal education requirement

A class required by the higher education system. It assists no one in the completion of any type of degree. The knowledge is forgotten once the class is complete and the money you spent on it is wasted because the class benifits no one at all.

College Student 1: "Hey man what liberal education requirement class are you taking?"

College Student 2: "I'm taking a chemistry lab because when I get my accounting degree I'll have to mix chemicals....a lot."

College Student 1: "I would rather just throw the money into my toilet and flush it down then take these ridiculous classes."

Education

Upside: A piece of paper you wave around to get free stuff and a the right to make fun of stupid people.

Downside: You have to spend 18 years of your life taking it up your ass from school to get a lousy piece of paper.

"I demand a raise because I have an education!"

"Why do I have to come to school anyway?"
"For a piece of paper, now bend over."

Lynchian education

Noun. A universal paradigm of adolescent education. The Lynchian teacher is very strong in his or her opinions and expects students to agree with him or her. If in a classroom setting, grades are usually based on subjectively-graded papers. Papers are reflective of (1) how much the subject material agrees with the teacher's personal views, and (2) the worth of the student in the teacher's eyes. Usually, this results in students getting a single grade on every paper regardless of content.

No curves are instituted in a Lynchian classroom. 100% is restricted to the student the instructor feels "deserves" it the most. Despite these flaws, Lynchian educators are usually looked up to by fellow academics as models of "awesomeness" or "tradition."

Mr. Salmonelli is a good guy, but his commitment to Lynchian education worries many students.

Physical Education

Class that the government forces on everybody so you don't get fat. It is basically a legal way for the school to abuse students by forcing them to do excercises, wear really crappy clothes and play sports and get hit in the head with the balls that the sports are played with. The gym teachers are usually overhyped bullies and just plain mean.

Adaptive PE is the class that they put the disabled kids in wheelchairs (Some can't see or hear) and force them to play sports. If you are in the adaptive PE class and are not disabled in any way other then ADD or mild autism, you will get talked down on by both the teacher and the student helpers. In adapted PE, the teacher really hates you and wishes she or he could smack your face in but forces themselfs to act all nice and calm.

Someone needs to ban PE for good for the health of students. There are more injuries in PE class then any other class in a school.

"ALRIGHT LETS STRECH"

"DROP & GIVE ME 100 PUSH UPS LETS GO WOO!!!"

"QUAD STRETCH"

"OK LETS PLAY DODGE BALL WOOO HOO!!!!"

"YOU DIDN'T DRESS FOR GYM! DETENTION!"

"Take that blind kid in the wheel chair and make him shoot some hoops"

Gym sucks.
