$10,000? I'm not taking golf lessons.

It is pretty easy to spend 10 grand there if you want much more than
the introduction course. The courses are up to $2000 each and there
are lots of them. If you are not staying at the Super 8 you can also
add $1000-1500 a week to live there plus a plane ticket.

Yeah, I know how much the courses cost. The one I have in mind is not an
intro course, and is about a fifth of what you quoted, including a ton
of ammo. There are some decent motels near the site for about $75 a
night, so figure another grand for room, board, car rental,
entertainment (ha!).

I get the impression that you have to take the intro course before you
can take the others and they build on each other..

Simple math: it's one of those liberal arts thingies...

No you should have learned simple math in elementary school.

Elementary, intermediate, and secondary schools *are* liberal arts
schools, unless you opt for "vocational" junior high and high school.
After all the times I've told you, you boys still don't understand what
comprises "the liberal arts."

*Math* is one of the liberal arts.

My buddy has a Bachelors of SCIENCE degree in math.

And you think *science* is not one of the liberal arts, eh?

Perhaps this will help:

Liberal arts, college or university curriculum aimed at imparting
general knowledge and developing general intellectual capacities in
contrast to a professional, vocational, or technical curriculum. In the
medieval European university the seven liberal arts were grammar,
rhetoric, and logic (the trivium) and geometry, arithmetic, music, and
astronomy (the quadrivium). In modern colleges and universities the
liberal arts include the study of literature, languages, philosophy,
history, mathematics, and science as the basis of a general, or liberal,
education. Sometimes the liberal-arts curriculum is described as
comprehending study of three main branches of knowledge: the humanities
(literature, language, philosophy, the fine arts, and history), the
physical and biological sciences and mathematics, and the social sciences.

From the Britannica.

A B.S. in Math is not, per se, a professional, vocational, or technical
curriculum.
