I remember a few of my friends took this philosophy (?) class and it was simple boolean logic. A and B, A or B, Not A, A xor B and so on. For a bunch of computer engineers, they thought it was a joke, but the arts students were getting so stressed and going "OMG I DON'T GET THIS WTFFFFF HOLY CRAP THIS IS HARD!!!"

So... I wouldn't say the Alberta education was world class or anything
