    ATLANTA (AP) -- Some students may skip classes this week to attend college basketball's Final Four, though at least a dozen have managed to score class credits out of the trip.
    The students are sports management majors at Lynn University in South Florida. As part of a course titled "The Final Four Experience," they will be traveling with a couple of professors to Atlanta to get a firsthand look at what goes into the major sporting event. And get this, each student gets three credits for the excursion.

    Re: "Professor Charles Barr, who has escorted Lynn students on overseas study tours, said attending the Final Four was something that couldn't be missed."

    Give the guy credit, a smart way to go and see "the Final Four" at the school's expense and/or at the very least he can "take if off his taxes".

    That class would kick ass if you were looking to get into sports management. In all honesty, it's a better idea and has more practical, real-world application than crap like the "Baseball History" course offered down at OU, or the "James Bond" course my buddy took at USC.
