It might be a new trend but a few of my professors are suggesting that we take trips to places that I wouldn't normally go, all in the interest of academic progress. First, my sweet poetry professor mention a possible reading in the local hookah lounge for our review assignment due later this semester. Then, my professor for History of the English Language brought up how a previous student based their main research project on the vernacular used at a nearby gay bar.
I don't know what's gotten into these people, but I hope it leaves soon.
(To be honest, the gay bar thing actually sounds interesting but the hookah lounge...I'm not willing to let a cloud of smoke kill my pores just to hear some random person read poetry pretentiously. And I would have to wash my hair afterward and that's just not cool.)
