Question LOTR Related College Courses

Well, seeing as all my applications are in and I have nothing left to do but think about colleges, here's my question: Do(or did) any of you take courses in college related to LOTR? I know one college offers a year long course covering all Middle Earth languages- I believe it's University of Austin, Texas, but I'm not sure.

Silmaril

I took an anthropology course at Towson University in Maryland where we read the Silmarillion and discussed the mythology Tolkien created. It was not nearly as in-depth as I would have liked, as it was only about a week and a half of discussion out of the entire semester, but it was still pretty cool to have philosophical discussions about ME. I tried to talk the professor into offering a full-semester course on Tolkien, but he wouldn't bite. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
