The <a href="https://umaine.edu/las/marxist-socialist-studies-minor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">university</a> says that this minor “encourages students to look at the world from a variety of Marxist and Socialist perspectives.” Students are required to take “Marxist Philosophy 1: The Philosophy of Karl Marx” and may choose from other courses including “Transnational Feminisms” and “Feminist, Gender and Queer Theory.”

Marxist and Socialist Studies Minor

This <a href="https://denison.edu/academics/queer-studies/degree-requirements#:~:text=The%20Queer%20Studies%20Program%20seeks,and%20for%20historically%20marginalized%20groups." target="_blank" rel="noopener">program</a> seeks to “legitimate [sic] academic inquiry into sexuality, sex, and gender, to pose questions of normativity and power, and to foster community with and for historically marginalized groups.” To fulfill the requirements for this useless major, students will take courses such as “Introduction to Queer Studies,” “Queer Theory,” and “Transgender Studies/Transgender Issues.”

Queer Studies

This <a href="https://www.westpoint.edu/academics/academic-departments/behavioral-sciences-and-leadership/diversity-and-inclusion-studies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">minor</a> “helps fulfill the Superintendent’s and Dean’s vision for diversity and inclusion at West Point.” Students may take courses including “Social Inequality,” “The Politics of Race, Gender, and Sexuality,” and “Power and Difference.”

Diversity & Inclusion Studies

Secular Studies is the ideal <a href="https://www.pitzer.edu/academics/field-groups/secular-studies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">major</a> for those who want to eradicate religion in the West. While it isn’t an official major, “students wishing to develop a special major in secular studies should consult with Professor Phil Zuckerman concerning a proposed plan of study.” The program “involves the study of non-religious people, groups, thought, and cultural expressions.” Fascinating.

Secular Studies

What’s the perfect <a href="https://www.sjny.edu/long-island/academics/programs-departments/recreation-and-leisure-studies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">major</a> for those who Netflix and chill 24/7? Recreation and Leisure Studies helps “others learn to nurture their emotional, physical and cognitive health — while having a little fun…” Students play Scrabble in the program’s website photo (it probably costs students $1,000 per game).

Recreation and Leisure Studies

Spend your hard-earned money on this <a href="https://lgbt.sdsu.edu/#:~:text=A%20major%2C%20minor%20and%20certificate,%2C%20fine%20arts%2C%20and%20education." target="_blank" rel="noopener">major</a>–where you can learn about same-sex desires and your sexual identity! That is if you want to be jobless after graduation…

LGBTQ+ Studies

This <a href="https://gws.uic.edu/academics/undergraduate-studies/social-justice-minor/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">minor</a> seeks to “attend to issues of disparity between dominant groups and those disadvantaged because of race, ethnicity, gender, sexuality, class, disability, or other identities, conditions, and social positions.” Fun.

Social Justice Minor

This <a href="https://www.smcvt.edu/academics/majors-minors-and-curriculum/equity-studies/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">major</a> focuses on “inequalities based on race and on disability” and offers <a href="http://catalog.smcvt.edu/preview_program.php?catoid=36&amp;poid=3322" target="_blank" rel="noopener">courses</a> such as “A Case for Reparations?,” “Comparative Politics of Racism,” and “The Politics of Queer Cinema.”

Equity Studies

What? How is a business school woke? The University of Pennsylvania <a href="https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-11308841/Wharton-business-school-introduces-Americas-wokest-degree.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">invested</a> $118,000 per year to require MBA students to take <a href="https://mgmt.wharton.upenn.edu/programs/mba/dei-major/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">classes</a> such as “Business Economics and Discrimination,” “Power and Politics in Organizations,” or “Leading Diversity in Organizations.

Master of Business Administration

As part of the university’s College of Arts &amp; Sciences, the Justice &amp; Peace Studies <a href="https://justiceandpeace.georgetown.edu/jups/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">program</a> “is a transdisciplinary, cross-cultural community of students, faculty, staff, and community partners who share a commitment to the academic study and lived pursuits of peace and social justice.” Peace on earth SOLVED!
