Minoring in Wumbology
I don’t know about you, but I’ve really been in the mood to wumbo lately. What, you’re not familiar with wumbo? You know! I wumbo. You wumbo. He/she/me wumbo. Wumboed. Wumboing. “We’ll have thee wumbo.” Wumborama? Wumbology, the study of wumbo? It’s first grade!
No? Still nothing? Perhaps these guys can reiterate it better than I can:
I’m honestly surprised that Chapman University (that place where I chill at) doesn’t offer a major or minor in Wumbology, considering how important a study it is to modern society. Luckily, Chapman offers self-designed majors and minors for the “undecisive” or “picky” as you may call them. To create my own minor, I have to create a program with at least 21 credits, 12 minimum upper-level classes. So if I were to propose my study program in Wumbology based on Chapman’s current course catalog, it would look something like this:
PHYS 101 – General Physics I (4 credits)
PHYS 102 – General Physics II (4 credits)
To general understand the concepts of physics, especially applied to wumbo.
MATH 110 – Single Variable Calculus I (3 credits)
Apparently it’s a prerequisite for the above classes. But I’m sure I’ll learn lots of practical things from this course that I can use in day to day life.
ENG 271 – Introduction to Linguistics (3 credits)
As difficult as wumbology is by itself, the term wumbo is also often incorrectly used in sentences. This class will help grasp a better sense of how to use it grammatically correctly.
PHYS 331 – Physics of Remote Sensing (3 credits)
Can one sense a wumboed object better than a non-wumboed object? I’ll find out!
PHIL 325 – Albert Schweitzer: His Life and Thought (3 credits)
This course explores Schweitzer’s contributions to philosophy, theology, medicine, music, peace, philanthropy, voluntary service, and wumbo.
SOC 305 – Social Theory (3 credits)
How has wumbo affected society and in what ways? Theoretically of course…
(This requires a SOC 101 prerequisite, but the minor should override that.)
PHYS 499 – Individual Study (3 credits)
Time to apply my knowledge of wumbo to the real world in a complex wumboful project.
I think that is a pretty exciting course of action. It’s a shame I couldn’t find any course in the catalog directly on the topic of wumbology. Hopefully this will do. Until then, I’m going to go wumbo me some pizza.
