I agree. I'm a CS major and am forced to take a class on history. The class is entirely online and the teacher doesn't seem to really care one bit. The entire class is just random quizzes that can easily be googled/ Just follow along on quizlet.

I have two options; Read the super boring textbook for 5 hours, take the test legit and get an 80% or I quizlett the test get 100% and spend the next 5 hours listening to Dan Carlins "Hardcore History" Podcast which i find much more informative and enjoyable.

I had similar cases with "business" and "management" courses in my computer engineering degree. While understanding business thinking is definitely an important part of being a computer engineer, these courses were utter bullshit and everyone knew it. So everyone I knew cheated, it was an open secret.

But the university wanted to boast that they are modern and prepare students for business stuff: look, we even require business-related courses in our program! But actually it was some nonsense like memorize various lists, like the 5 different aspects of whatever, some pseudo-mathy formulas, etc. I mean, if you take me that seriously to give me this type of nonsense as "learning material" then I will take you precisely as seriously when it comes to the exam.
