underwater basket weaving

underwater basket weaving

Any college or university course that is absurd in its uselessness or irrelevance, especially an elective unrelated to one's degree that is very easy to pass. I spent most of my first year in college partying. On the actual academic front, well, most of my classes were in underwater basket weaving. Instead of learning practical things like business management and economics, students these days are filling their days with underwater basket weaving and other such nonsense.
