A golfing culture degree anyone?

Hagi University, a small private school in Yamaguchi prefecture, found itself struggling to attract new students this year. It had been authorized to take up to 300 new undergraduates, but unfortunately a paltry 30 enrolled.

No doubt numerous heads were scratched, and the result was the development of a new course. Judging by the title of this post, you won’t be surprised to find that it focuses on golf culture. What the subject involves isn’t clear, however rumour has it that students will study the impact of checkered slacks and gaudy Pringle sweaters on the modern game.
