Some UC Davis students are learning to juggle, massage feet or practice self-hypnosis. Others, to maintain a bicycle, belly dance or prepare Indian food. They're among the hundreds of students who enroll in the more than 70 offbeat courses offered each quarter through the student-run Experimental College, now in its 34th year. "Experimental College is a wonderful place for people to explore things they don't traditionally find in other settings," says Nikki Grey, college director and a senior majoring in American studies. "We're always looking to offer refreshing, exciting courses -- classes with a citrus scent." The college has 1,100 to 1,500 enrollments each quarter and about 600 in the summer. Yoga, social dance and martial arts classes draw the largest number of students, but limited enrollment classes on fire walking or how to be a disc jockey are also popular. Fees begin at $5. Most courses, offered in the evenings and on weekends, run through mid-March. The exception rather than the rule, students can earn academic credit for one course offered this quarter: "Awareness and Activism." The seven-week course will include presentations from environmental, social and political activists. New courses result from staff brainstorming sessions as well as suggestions from students and would-be instructors. What's on the horizon? Straw-bale construction and, if an instructor can be found, hair-braiding techniques. The college, located on the second floor of the South Silo, also rents out about 100 community garden plots for $10 each a year, houses several environmental groups and an environmental library, and maintains a small library on topics from gardening to philosophy.
