No joke.

I highly doubt that this is a world wide thing, I've never heard that let's say German universities offer crap courses like these. I mean maybe they offer them as "short courses" for fun and games separately from the curriculum but I find it highly unlikely that they count these sorry excuses for academic courses towards a respectable degree*.

* if you study stuff like "fine art" for example and mock around with pottery classes and get a paper at the end, I don't consider that as a degree. i consider it a paper proving that you wasted a number of years and a lot of taxpayer dollars fooling around with clay and crayons
