Professor Says UFO Studies Should Be Taught At Universities

Posted by samzenpus on from the alien-grading-curve dept.

New York anthropology professor Philip Haseley wants young people to get the best education possible, and part of that education, he says, should be about UFOs. Haseley thinks universities should offer classes on UFOs and other unexplained phenomena from space. "[A sighting] happens to millions of people [around the world]. It's about time we looked into this as a worthy area of study. It's important that the whole subject be brought out in the open and investigated," he said. I want to believe the truth is out there in 500 words or less.

    It is also because if the footage wasn't grainy and of poor quality/distance, then the object will almost always be identified. And if the flying object is identified, it can not be a UFO.
