Lol no kidding. Glad we made it out the other side! I'm assuming you're from the US as well?

Aside from the initial class meeting, my bowling credit was largely "independent study", meaning I just had to log 9 games a week at the school's rec center bowling alley.

I mistakenly did the math one day. I don't remember the figures (thank goodness) but I'd have saved a lot more money than I thought (for a cheaper state school) just....bowling 9 games a week at the local bowling alley.

But where's the prestige of a college credit approved by my professor, a fella that I think played Lollipop Chainsaw on the Xbox + "Party in the USA" over the PA every day I went in that summer? Lol

    Yup. I am. My professor was pretty good about it, though, knowing a lot of us had to commute for his class. He calculated the average strings per hour, then let us comp out to an A. Some of us had to make up two gym credits, so he offered to let us comp out both gym classes just bowling, letting us skip the "lifestyle fitness" class.

    But yeah, never do the math. The gym class is just a moneymaker for them.
