    With a physical campus location, it seems the operators of this school are really serious about providing "...students with the highest quality training for the cannabis industry."

    Oaksterdam University says "since opening its doors in November of 2007, thousands of students have taken classes with the hope of entering the budding cannabis job field."

    I wonder what type of jobs they will qualify for with a "cannabis degree." Interesting...

    Growing their own weed at home and smoke them; while declare unemployment to draw benefits. :tongue2:

    If money and time were no object I'd love to take at least one class at Oaksterdam just to see what this school is all about, beyond what their website tells.

    "This Pre-requisite Course consists of the core classes fundamental for every student of cannabis. We require every student to start with these classes, regardless of what you plan to do within the cannabis industry or movement in the future."

    Outdoor Agriculture Semester

    Students will get a detailed overview of the politics and history surrounding cannabis, historically referred to as hemp or marihuana.

    Possible employers, once you complete the degree? Mexican drug cartels, or medical marijuana growing factory?

    Medical Marijuana is legal in many places throughout the US... including California, where this school is. Since medical grade marijuana is the highest grade of any cannabis product, I think that it's pretty great that a school exists to train people in the fundamentals of the "Cannabis Industry." It's definitely a better resume booster than "Sold weed to college kids."

    Also, I think that it's pretty safe to assume that marijuana is going to be legalized in the US within our lifetimes... and just like tobacco, could become it's own industry (unless it's absorbed by the tobacco companies). The guys that started this school are smart!

    You're so very intelligent. I'm jealous. Because we know that all Cannabis smokers are unemployed. I know about 10 of them and they all have careers and families but that's not the norm. Get a clue please. Try not to sound COMPLETELY CLUELESS.

    Wow - your first post and it's a childish rant. Nice.

    I have to agree this wasn't helpful. If you want to sound reasonable and worth listening to, so that those in the middle will consider your position, then crashing a forum and insulting the people who participate in it isn't the way to do it.

    And I've supported an end to the war on drug users my whole life, so this is coming from a friend.
