Tightwaddery 101

And I thought my classes were pretty fun and innovative.  Here's Emrys Westacott talking about one of his classes--

I teach a course here at the university called Tightwaddery, the Good Life on a Dollar a Day.
It’s what we call an honours class, a two-credit evening class and it’s
both serious and somewhat light-hearted. We read Epicurus, we read
Thoreau, we read articles about consumerism
