Female Arizona State University students can receive extra credit for defying social norms and refusing to shave for 10 weeks during the semester.

Women and Gender Studies Professor Breanne Fahs, encourages her female students to cease shaving their underarms and legs during the semester and document their experiences in a journal.

Wonder how this will play out.
I can't stand my legs after 4 days of no shaving--I'd never last 10 weeks.

What do the male students get if they don't shave under their arms?

Discriminatory?

At a school that receives federal funding . . .

Women & Gender studies is the most useless course of studies I can imagine. The daughter of a friend of mine has a doctorate in that. The only thing she can do with it is teach others the same thing. At least with basket weaving one can make some nice looking baskets & sell them at flea markets to make a little money.
