Fengshui course proves popular

WUHAN: Fengshui, the traditional Chinese study of geomantic omens for buildings or cemeteries, is proving extremely popular as a new university course in Central China despite the endless conjecture over its status as a science or superstition.

On Saturday, 130 students attended the first "Buildings and Fengshui" lecture given by Ma Wei, a teacher at the School of Urban Construction with Wuhan University of Science and Technology Zhongnan branch.

Thirty of them were architecture majors.
