They should just severely limit access to the school eateries for fatties instead. Save money and eliminate that awkward "watching fat people gorge themselves" uncomfortableness.

Man.... I remember my first night on campus and looking at the unbelievable amount of food being consumed by my people, mainly my sistas. Oh sweet jesus, it was like "So you like being 5'2" and 247lbs?"

Shit's not sexy boo.

Sup Chris Rock?

I love black people, but I haaaate a nigga.

I lol'd. Then, I showed a co-worker, and we lol'd together. And I'm still lol'ing.

I was forced to take women's studies which had a feminist (duh) for a professor. I'd rather do tai bo than take women's studies classes ever again.

Colleges require students to take all sorts of general studies classes that aren't important towards your major. For example, as a Criminal Justice major I have never gotten any practical use out of information I learned in my Meteorology, Trig, or Mythology classes, but I still had to earn credits in Science, Math, and humanities. I also had to take gym classes in college (got credits to go snowboarding once a week for 10 weeks and only paid $100 for the class. Booyah!). This isn't breaking new grounds in the area of "wasting money on shit you don't care about". It's only breaking ground with lazy fatties.

This.

I had to take anthropology classes for my criminal justice degree when I couldn't care less about indigenous tribes or comparing cultures. I have no sympathy for fat-asses who can't follow a laid out curriculum for their own degree plan. Here's some advice for the fatties, drop the fucking cheeseburger.

I really don't see the problem here. As others have said many schools have all sorts of random requirements to graduate. A school has that choice to make on their own. They can require you to take any class they want for graduation. If you don't like it you can go to a different school with different requirements.

The only ground to stand on here is the argument that it is only a requirement for some students. It should be a requirement for everyone.

[Tyche]

If you don't like a university's gen ed requirements or graduation requirements, take your ass to a technical college where you'll only take classes that relate to your major.

I bet the Jamaicans from that school will be pissed. We all know how they love their big women.

I agree, this isn't a big deal. Weight loss or staying in shape is way too easy, honestly all you have to do is to grab a portable music player and walk/jog/run 2 miles/day.

I actually like the encouragement of the school. If you are obese in your college years you've got to change your lifestyle as it'll be much more difficult to get back in shape after mid-20's.

[Syntex]

Its a good idea but making only certain students do it and not everyone is just wrong.

Obesity is going to rob you of your quality and quantity of life, DeBoy said. We believe that this is unconscionable

Replace Obesity with Smoking, Drugs, Alcohol, Sky Diving.

If fat people need a class so does all the above mentioned people because we must determine how you live your life.

Give me an education and gtfo.

[Cream Soda]

Honestly though, the only thing that class is going to do is help each and every student who takes it (even if only temp and as soon as they get out of the class they go back to their fatass ways)

[Weltall]

This should be required by all colleges....excellent A+

Yeah but I totally saw this one episode on Law & Order-

Anyway, I'm required to take 1 PHED course, and 1 higher level PHED or an activity course. I'm not really sure what to take but I'd love take advantage of the opportunity ( and grateful ) to lose a few pounds.

List of what my school offers:

Spoiler: show

Tennis, Fitness Walking, Aerobic Fitness, Basketball, Badminton, Bowling, Weight Training, Yoga/Pilates, Soccer, Golf, Fencing, Survival Skills (just a few of the hands on activity courses)
