(1) How to Effectively Lie and Cheat for Fun and Profit -- I think that is
standard fare in general social psychology courses. The other two are probably
better covered in units outside of Arts and Sciences.

Subject: [tips] FIFA Is Corrupt?
I am shocked, SHOCKED! you hear! For those who don't follow world soccer, here
is one source:
http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/soccer/2015/05/27/fifa-corruption-charges-jeffrey-webb-jack-warner/28001753/
Follow the money.
This revelation suggests that perhaps we should consider some new courses in
order for out students to better compete in the real world, for example:
(1) How to Effectively Lie and Cheat for Fun and Profit
(2) Brand/Activity Loyalty: Effective Exploitation of Uncritical Fandom
(3) Adaptive Strategies for Incarceration: Beyond Survival, Ruling
Seriously, how do teachers manage to claim that one should be honest and
truthful when the payoffs for hypocrisy and being corrupt are so great?
Or are people too busy makes plans on how to survive the
110+ degree temperatures in Qatar while they're there to
watch the game in person or, for the rest of the world, planning the party
their going to have during the game?

I guess there's just one thing left to say about the arrests:
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALL!!!
