Sneakerology 101 is one of the first university level courses to deal with the whole culture and history of sneakers. Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania is the university that will be offering the one of a kind class and the ideal class for anyone interested in sneakers.
Sneakerology 101 will trace the sneaker culture all the way back to its roots in the 70’s through the hip-hop and internet era till today’s modern day. The class will refer to Bobbito Garcia’s Where’d You Get Those? book and many online-based sneaker websites. To enroll for the Spring ’09 session sign up here.
thats raw as hell i wish i could go there i still got lots of things to learn about sneakers
I can not believe that this is a class you can get credit for toward your graduation.
this makes me wanna go to CMU
what a savage class.
I would take this class just for kicks. ha ha
lots of empty seats in that pic, i would go anyday
The shoe game is dead as we know it. The co-opting/watering down of another inner city cultural phenomenon goes the way of graffiti and hip hop.
see they need a body like me up in their cus i could whipe up somthin hott
They need to start offering that class at more colleges.
this is hot…like some1 mentioned…this class needs to b offered to more collages…i wood join this class asap if i could and if they take it to an advance corse also ill b in there…easy credit and its somethin i can relate to…this hot!
Are you kidding. Like I need some 50 year old white dude to tell me the history of sneaks. This is just another way to get bread out of foke pockets. Hit the streets and talk to headz if you want to learn about sneakers. White people at they money makin finest. I aint hatin really. If you dumb enough to think you need this, they should take your money!
Man, I love sneaks. I love them a lot, but do I need to learn about them in a university classroom? I don't think so. Even if I were the dean of a faculty or something, I'd turn this down as a course. What's the final exam, a trip to Sneaker Pimps? Please.
hell if lil kim can have her own college course then why can't sneakers?
viva la sneakerology 101!
too bad the school only has a 28 percent acceptant rate. Buts thats pretty sick i would take that class if it was available in more schools.
Now only if I could major in this!!!
Ok, I just went back and read some of the other comments. Let's think about this, for college students who need an easy elective. What better class to take? And for all we know, Greg Street could be teaching this class. I mean 9-Wonder teaches college classes on Music at NCCU.
Wow, this is the most retarded idea CMU made. I can't believe this is an actual class, whoever made this should just fall off a cliff.
Pittsburgh represent. Our scene sucks but whatever we still have this. Forgetttt the haters
