Only a university based in Sin City would have the moxie to offer an actual class on how to run a night club. I guess its not unreasonable to believe that all those strippers really are attending college with their tip money. Want to make some real cash after graduation? Forget about Harvard or Stanford, go to UNLV!
We need to give props to our Mountain West brethren after reading this article on their Nightclub Management class.
Implications - The night classes at UNLV are more than a little unconventional. In an official lecture format, they teach all of the important skills university students pick up in their four years like how to throw an exclusively adult pool party in Vegas featuring cheap drinks, topless dancers and more.
