Check out this for Sex_Ed. Finally, a class even Kenwood could enjoy!

How is this going to help Kenwood? It doesn't say anything about how to find more Internet pedophiles.

True, I just thought he might be more comfortable in a class where he can be placed in a gimp suit and whipped.

Almost as good as home-schooling

TORONTO (Reuters) - An undergraduate program at Canada's august University of Toronto offers discussions on flogging, restraint, and role-play, as well as an arts course called "Queerly Canadian.

"I would estimate -- of course I don't ask -- that 50 percent of our students are not queer-identified by any use of that term, which is great," he said.

Only 50%?

What does queer-identified mean?

Canada has colleges?

yes but they are structured differently and tend to be more vocational oriented (usually offer a 2 year accelerated program with work placement).

ie: http://www.rrc.mb.ca/

versus

http://www.uwinnipeg.ca/

Our universities would be equivalent (sort of) to a US college, where you can take 3 and 4 year undergrad degree studies, but then it differs in that you can also take granduate and doctoral studies. I think in the US you go from college (undergrad) to university (Is that correct?)

Up here college and university are very different - like Gordo said colleges are mostly vocational/trade schools and universities are degree oriented - most colleges you can only get a diploma, not a BA or BSc or Masters. The tutition is also quite different with college being about $2200 a year and University being upwards of $7000 which is why many people are choosing to go to college instead now.

U of T is one of the best schools in Canada so it doesn't surprise me they have a program like that. You should hear some of the freaky stuff people take here. My friend is in a Masters of Cultural Communication program where she is learning how to basically be a missionary with a Masters Degree - waste of time if you ask me but oh well.

She has a masters degree in being in the missionary position?

They are pretty much the same thing, University and College. I think the only difference being that a university has a bigger focus on research, while a college has a bigger focus on learning.

For example, a Canadian University will hire a man who doesn't speak English, can't teach worth shit, but does amazing research and publishes a paper in a world class journal every month.

A college on the other hand will hire someone if they can effectively communicate their ideas and the course content to the student.

I could and am probably wrong, but this is what I've seen from my experiences.
