Students at a Colorado university can soon major in cannabis

Some students in Colorado will soon be able to major in weed instead of just smoking it in their dorm rooms. 

Colorado State University-Pueblo just received approval for the state's first degree program focused on cannabis, the Denver Post reports. The program is called "Cannabis, Biology and Chemistry" and will be similar to a double major in biology and chemistry, dean of the university's College of Science and Mathematics David Lehmpuhl told the Post.
