I was just watching the UPN 9 news, and it is now my opinion that The University of Michigan RULES!  They now offer a course called "Simpsons 101," which is an analysis of the show and its characters.  The only class that could be cooler is a class about pro wrestling...

Wow.  That's really cool and sort of frightening at the same time.  While "The Simpsons" is a pretty complex show compared to, say, "Titus" or something equally reprehensible, I can't really see what they would teach in a class on it.  Subtle pop culture references?  The history of couch gags in western civilization?  Will the two episode guides be textbooks?  It boggles the mind.

I guess it's time to find out if Ann Arbor really is a slut.

Sweeeeet.  And I live near Michigan.  This is good.  And also I have both Simpsons books, so Whoo-Hoo, no text book fees.

Actually, they said the analysis of the show is so complex that TWO professors teach the class at the same time.

I also posted this in my forum and it turns out there is actually a pro wrestling class available in some Canadian College!

This is not the first Simpsons class I've heard about, and it would be damn cool.

Now, I must use this information, because one of my professors has been talking about putting together a Simpsons class before, and maybe this will convince him!

This must've been a Fox Network feed.  That same segment was on the Fox News outlet here in Dallas.
