    The greek alphabet. I pledged a fraternity in college, and despite forgetting almost literally everything from college, I still remember and can recite on request the greek alphabet.

    I'm so glad that tuition wasn't wasted.

      As some who learned ancient greek for 3 years during high school, this isn't random at all. It's been very useful when studying physics too.

        I have a degree in physics, can confirm, learnt the greek alphabet by equations and it came in handy when I went to Greece on holiday!

          Temperature, partial differential equations, wave functions, so much coefficients use a greek letter too : Friction, damping etc.

      Me, too! Ask me what's new and I'll respond with, "The 13th letter of the Greek Alphabet."
