starcraft university Starcraft Classes Starting @ University of Florida[CrunchGear] Blake’s dream just came true – get good grades for your Starcraft skills. The University of Florida just opened a new class for Starcraft fans. Luckily, Starcraft 2 just came out.

This class must be a heavy load as it weighs in at 2 credits. The course description makes sure you understand its not about learning how to play:

“It does not teach about Starcraft, but rather aims to utilize the game and the complex situations that arise within it to present and develop the important skills professionals will undoubtedly need in the 21st Century workplace.
This course includes required weekly game play, viewing and analysis of recorded matches, written assignments which emphasize analysis and synthesis of real/game-world concepts, and collaboration with other students.”

I hear next semester they are teaching how to use Twitter in a strenuous 4 credit two week class.
