History of Jazz...just listened to music the whole class. Final consisted of listening to clips and identifying which era they came from.
 
Forestry

Sports Sociology

NJot surprisingly, there were many D-1 jocks and babes in these classes. 🙂
 
I took a few neat filler classes. Military Mountaineering and Survival was a lot of fun. My favorite was Combinatorial Game Theory. Not exactly your run-of-the-mill filler class, but for the math geeks it was one hell of a fun class.
 
ROTC command school. They let some non-cadets in the class. We played tabletop war games all semester.

Also it feels really good when you totally kick the crap out of their best cadet's strategy. 😀

Then you get really depressed when you think that person will someday be commanding real troops. 🙁
 
Literature of the Beat: Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg, William S. Burroughs, cool man, cooool.

4-5 of us in class were parents.

We were taken aside after the second class and offered a very high grade for not showing up and asking questions in class😛

Wow, that seems... unfair, considering you can't spell "psychology" 😛

For me, easiest class was LIS 312 at UT-Austin. Tim Berners-Lee founded the intarweb!
 
classics in scandanavian literature... story time for adults by a great prof at UWisc
rocks for jocks - geography department course in landforms and climate... scan-tron exams
cultural anthropology - watch videos on different tribespeople and then regurgitate a bit of that for essay exams.
