COOLEST College Courses (PHOTOS)

Why sit in that English Lit or Econ 101 or Psych class when you can take a course on the Philosophy and Star Trek? (Thanks, Georgetown U!) Or iPhone Application Programming? (Go Stanford!) Or, our personal favorite, a class on the making of maple syrup (Loving you, Alfred U.)

So welcome to HuffPost College's inaugural edition of our Triple C -- COOLEST College Courses! (And, if you're a student taking a really cool course -- or a teacher instructing what you think is a rad, innovative, eclectic class -- we'd love to hear from you.)

The class explores the technical aspects of decomposition and waste processes, focusing on two types of waste: items that rot and items that don’t. It also explores the social justice issues related to environmental matters, such as the fact that landfills and recycling centers are frequently located in poorer neighborhoods and that American Indian tribes, as sovereign nations, can store nuclear waste for the U.S. government.
