Whore College

No, it's not Barnard. That's not technically a Whore College, as they don't have an academic department dedicated to whoring. They just have very competitive intramural leagues.*

This is a real college for whoring.

25 students in jeans and T-shirts could have been in any career that requires hustle. The classes, covering topics such as effective marketing, stress reduction and legal issues, could have been part of any professional development seminar.

But this was "Whore College," and any illusion it was just another corporate how-to for young go-getters abruptly ended at the sex toy display and was stripped away for good during a graphic demonstration that put a whole new twist on the concept of hands-on training.

"We are still illegal," instructor Kimberlee Cline said before her 20-minute demonstration. "If we want to be treated as business professionals, we need to act ethically within the industry."

...

Participants who stuck it out for the whole day received diplomas certifying them as G.S.W's — graduates in sex work.

...

"Sex work is work. Prostitution is work," Leigh said. "The most important thing is that we are diverse. Some are on the streets and in a very desperate situation. Others are in a working-class situation and maybe bored in their jobs. And others see sex work as their calling."

In related news, I'm quitting this blog so I can start going to CUNY to earn my teaching certificate. I'm going to minor in Razor-Blade Concealment.

Now, hold on to your hats: "Whore College" located in San Fransisco.

What a shock. Breaking news. Must credit Ace.

Yeah, I know, a top ten is called for... but it just seems to easy.

Thanks to Greg.

* No, I don't have anything against Barnard. I don't even think I actually know anyone from Barnard. But this is the sort of situation where you have to tell a joke suggesting that someone out there is an easy score, and I just picked Barnard.

A Pun So Bad It's Good Update: J Mann:

My guess is that summa cum laude, but some don't.

I think it depends on how much they're being paid.
