I used to try to convince the faculty at a stodgy Texas University to let me name courses (this was Texas A&M's Dept of CS); your course? "Baguettes and Baudelaire". My suggestion for the programming language course "Cunning linguists for Typical hands" was outright rejected, BTW. I argued that it had a great movie reference.

I studied both and so did my three kids (each in a different school). You can't really escape Molière, Hugo, Rimbaud and Baudelaire (and some others too).
