General Education
classes are a set of classes required by a
college or
university for absolutely everybody as a prerequisite of
graduation. Usually, they are extremely easy and relatively
boring. Often large, many good
professors shun them, and
graduate students or other lackeys often have the unfortunate task of teaching these
monstrosities. They cover a wide range of topics, but all share one unifying property: a preponderance of
slack-jawed morons.
