Of course the advantage of going to Waterloo is that you can probably pass the Google coding interviews.
- phillc73 6y agoI clearly wasted my time with English Lit, Modern European History, Linguistics and German in my first year at University!
- reaperducer 6y agoDon't feel bad. I wasted my time with Soviet Studies. Oops.
- jascii 6y agoSomething tells me that that is still pretty relevant...
- 908B64B197 6y agoI mean, Cornell is an Ivy, not a regional school.
- t0mas88 6y agoI thought you were joking, but handgun safety really is a college class... Just wow.
- Alex3917 6y agoIt makes sense, given there are academic fields where a gun might be needed. E.g. if your research involves inventorying songbirds in the jungles of Colombia or whatever. Even in the U.S. a lot of mycologists carry weapons, so if they get shot at while accidentally stumbling on an illegal weed grow or whatever they can shoot back.
- unishark 6y agoThe description looks like it's about competition, not just safety, akin to a class on poker. Perhaps the title is a bit of spin for defensive reasons.
- porknubbins 6y agoThats what I was thinking, safety is critical, but an easy 2 day class. There are so many more interesting angles for engineering students to approach handguns whether self defense (more Bondish) or marksmanship, engineering principles etc.
- a0-prw 6y agoLaughed at that, cheers bro :)
- realityking 6y agoSvalbad University has an, AFAIK mandatory, course that includes learning hot to shoot a rifle: https://www.unis.no/course/as-101-arctic-survival-and-safety-course/ https://www.unis.no/course/as-101-arctic-survival-and-safety... In most of Svalbad you need to carry a rifle to defend yourself against polar bears.
- Aeolun 6y ago> The course is intended for students with little or no prior experience of life in the high Arctic. I’d say that there’s not many of them if they go to school there.
- stilley2 6y ago"I would found an institution where any person can find instruction in any study." -Ezra Cornell. I'm not sure if they're offered anymore, but they used to have Basic Rifle Marksmanship and Epee de Guerre. My friend once told me he thought my major was "weapons".
