College offers zombie course

When I was in school, these kinds of things only happened when the professor was hungover and/or sick of looking at their students.

From UPI:

A University of Baltimore professor said he is basing his English 333 curriculum around zombies.
Arnold Blumberg said his class will involve screening 16 zombie film classics, zombie comic books as required reading and the option for students to write a screenplay or draw storyboards for their ideal zombie movies as final projects, The Baltimore Sun reported Tuesday.

This isn't the stupidest idea for a college course that I've ever heard of. Didn't someone once offer a course on the films of Keanu Reeves? (People Magazine says "Yes.")
