Nearly a year after the federal government unceremoniously raided Oakland’s Oaksterdam University, a new source of “higher education” has emerged in Denver, Colorado with THC University commencing its curriculum on Saturday.

As reported by the Denver Post, 20-plus students comprised the first sold-out Growing Marijuana 101 class and were instructed for five hours on the essentials of indoor cannabis cultivation, and then given the option to tour a dispensary growing facility.

THC University was created by Matt Jones and Freeman LaFleur in response to the passage of Amendment 64, which legalized recreational marijuana in November in anticipation of the legal cannabis retail outlets that will begin operations in the coming year.

However, unlike Oaksterdam, which was a privately controlled facility and thus allowed instructors and students alike to work hands-on with actual cannabis plants and flowers, THC University is limited to demonstrations on that old pot stand-in of tomato plants because THC-U holds classes at the educational facility known as Auraria Campus, where pot possession remains forbidden. Additionally, THC U is not associated with any accredited university.

The ambitious Jones and LaFleur also plan to create Job Board, a system to better assist those who complete cannabis certificate programs to find employment in the dispensary and recreational marijuana industries.
