The University of Florida is offering a new course on the late, great Jimmy Buffett. Titled 'Son of a Son of a Sailor', the one-credit course will study the "Margaritaville" singer's music catalog, philanthropy, and environmental activism. There's also a planned field trip to go surfing in St. Augustine. The instructor, Dr. Melissa L. Johnson said she wants students to "gain a larger appreciation" of Buffett's work beyond his most familiar songs.
