I hate this elitism bullshit. Like you need some hippy with dirty hair to teach you... or some hipster psychologist more into himself than your conciousness.
Perhaps he's trying to differentiate casual use from "respectful" use, but I think its a false dichotomy anyways.

The course number, 420, is traditionally thought of as a big day in drug culture. The class number is simply a coincidence however, Roberts said.
its a big day in nazi culture perhaps...
If anything other than a pure number its a time

I used to think 420 was some made up thing to get stoned but I hear there is a legit meaning behind it.

I think he's more trying to sell it to the masses, and encourage casual and curious and unexperienced drug users try such powerful substances safely.
Remember if you sugar coat it or put shock value to it (better yet both), stupid people (whom are the majority) will do whatever you want. just look at the Republican party.

I have a class like this at my school called Drug use and Abuse. I hate the name, but I'm thinking about taking it to see if it's biased or not.
They even have examples.

I took a class kinda like this a few semesters ago, it was called Drug Abuse. The professor was actually my best friends dad. He wasn't biased about drugs at all, a memorable quote from him during the class was something to the effect of "Drugs like heroin, and crack are in your system for a very short amount of time, but you can test for pot up to a month after you have only smoked once, what kind of sense does that make?"

Sounds like a sweet class. Sometimes i wish i went to a conventional university so i can take some classes I'm genuinely interested in, but Media Arts is a real passion of mine. Guess i'll just go to college till i die.
