They are serious credits and are issued through the athletic dept. or the Phys Ed dept.

Yes, and they are electives, not program requirements, as I said. I was only talking about the Pokemon GO course anyway, not all athletics department courses.

Maybe things have changed but when I went to school an elective in one major could be a requirement in another major.

Learning basic gardening techniques is actually a pretty effective life skill that a lot of people wouldn’t know. A credit class for Uni is a bit of a stretch though.

It is a stretch, I dont understand what these credit classes are though. WHat it mean by credit?

It is for sure a effective life skill, and we have forgotten that, because our way of life doesnt require us to survive like we use to. Now we just go to the super market.

the biggest difference that people are overlooking is that these won’t make any significant dent in your requirements for a degree. So while they are lacking merit, therer isn’t much of a problem with people taking it.

While they won’t earn credit towards a specific concentration/major, the credits earned will still count towards the amount needed to graduate from the school. No, it’s not a significant dent like you mentioned, but still notable compared to any more difficult elective. Also, some schools have a physical education requirement simply to graduate (my university required two semesters of it), so classes like this could be very beneficial for some students to take.

“Great People of Science.” Went to a small private college. It was the science class for athletes. My roommate and I got in (philosophy and classical studies majors, respectively). We would have a quiz if attendance fell below 50 percent, which happened only once (attendance was 25 percent of our grade and quizzes were 25 percent). Quiz question was “Who is your favorite great person of science, and why?” Thankfully, I scored 100 percent on that quiz. Ha ha.
