Underwater Basket WeavingUnderwater basket-weaving is a synonym for "Undecided" or "Really Easy" as a College or University major. Also a humorously generic answer to questions about a college degree. E.G.: "What kind of degree do I need to get this job?" "You can have a degree in Underwater left-handed basket weaving as long as you have your piece of paper." This generic term for an undecided major first arose during the Vietnam war era to describe the sorts of majors that many young men, who would otherwise not have entered college, undertook to escape the draft. Some kinds of basket-weaving are done with the canes submerged to preserve suppleness, and there are both right-handed and left-handed patterns. So underwater basket weaving does exist.
