If family were professors

Or what happens when your sis-n-law says she thinks the 3 men in the family missed their calling as professors.

Prof. Ol' man B: Beloved by his students for never staying on topic long enough to have time for tests. Cons: Never win an argument, never get out of joining him in "one last drink"
American History, Useless Factoids: The Rain in Spain and the improbability of 76 trombones,
Misguided Politics: You maybe wrong and An Economist I'm not.
Project Pacing: Wood working, Home and car restoration "Before Death"

Prof. Grizzly Adams B: Sometimes students can't find their class as he prefers the coffee shop, park or pub as the ideal writing environment. Cons: will often rant at you in soft mumbly tones and has been known to feed particularly bad stories to a goat in on his self sufficient organic co-op/ Pirate farm managed by his lovely wife.
Writing: Fiction, Prose, Logogram
Cooking: What you dont know about your Grill and How to talk to your Kitchen
Environmental Science: bad stories make good compost

Prof. Techno-snob B: Can be sidetracked by most anything shiny and new or antiquated and still running, uses a system of demerits where everyone starts out in the hole, hosts a geek-fest every other thursday in his home where his lovely wife encourages students to get blotto or receive additional demerits.
Cons: Pre Req for all classes. Will insist you have a well thought out researched "In case of Zombie Apocalypse" strategy.
Theory of applied Code: How to make it apply to everything
Cinematography: Science Fiction and Horror, Seriously some of it's good.
Interactive Fiction: it's the code that counts

Imagine having all three nutty professors in your course list - if you survive you get bonus classes from Dr. Mrs. Not-a-Birk in Politics: Why You Should Hate Hillary and Craft Fairs of the Southwest.
