    The entire course is a rip off, nothing more than a daycare/fantasy camp for spoiled kids too lazy to hack it in a real school.

    I mean, there's no academic work, no learning at all. Just sitting around talking about games. No-duh conversations like "This game is fun because it's not too hard and not too easy".

    I mean, you'd think they'd just offer it as a completely extra-curricular 'club', so any students interested could join and hang out and get guest speakers and all that. A sensible school would do just that, but these guys want more tuition money.

    Oh well, I pity the future Guildhall Alumni who wonder why an A+ in 'Dig-Dug' doesn't impress employers on their resume.
