What are some fun, interesting classes to take?

[LS20]

I want to sign up for one more class in the fall. I only have 4class/13 hours registered currently... basically i've met all of my core requirements and more so i am totally open for any classes i feel interested in.

from that point on, ill have about 30 hours of all CS classes left--9 of which is the max i can take per semester... so i can either pursue a minor or just take a bunch of random classes

anyways for now i need something thats fun and hopefully a gpa-kicker, too

im thinking some intro to architecture..astronomy...something about evolution... or stuff specific to the UK .. more suggestions please

Astronomy is usually a cake-course .. for something fun I'd take a history course on a subject you find interesting - history is great with a good prof.

There was a class on the History of U.S. Airpower offered at my school that I found interesting....depends on what you are interested in I guess.

yeah, im browsing the history offerings right now.. plus, the avg GPA in these courses are alot higher than all the ones ive taken

The most fun class I ever took was a Latin Ballroom dancing class. You can fill in the blanks as to why it was so much fun! Highly recommended if that is offered.

I took Man's Food. Was a walk in the park and was pseudo interesting.

Over here we have a Sociology on pornagraphy... I haven't taken it, cuz it's not an easy course... but my friends who have taken it said you get to read/watch porn (provided by the prof) in class...

For the essay, you have to go to strip clubs/watch porn video/magazines and write about your experiences...

Does your school allow students to make their own classes? When I was at cal, there was this class (they were called "D-Cals") on tupac shakur: "History 98, the Poetry and History of Tupac Shakur"

I also remember there was one on the art/sciencs of DJing (ie, the different types of "scratches"). I heard this one was hard because you were actually tested on how well you could mix and creat beats.

Being an engineer, though, i never had the chance to take any of these, but you might have something similar at your school.

Photography. I am not sure if it is a cake-walk class. But I think being able to take a decent picture is a worth-while skill to have.

I took a Math class that analyzed how computers performed complex calculations using nothing more than addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Wasn't too hard and was very interesting.

there was a class taught at UT called "strategic intelligence and covert operations"

it was the reason i became a gov't major.

i always thought psych was interesting
