Outside my major I'd say it's a tie between my intro German class and Ancient Philosophy

Inside my major, Orgo Lab :eek:

Edit: Woops, wrong forum, mods please move to OT!

Moved from P&N at OP's request.

Greek mythology. IT had nothing to do with my major, but it was damned interesting.

Haven't really had a favorite yet. I enjoy foreign language though so when I get a chance to take it will probably be that.

Nutrition

I learned so much from that class and use the knowledge I gained from it everyday in my eating and exercise habits.

All my major (IT) classes were a complete joke.

Best course I ever took was a completely random elective, Intro to Social and Political Philosophy. Professor wasn't a raging liberal, so that right there separated the class from every history lecture I had.

Intermediate Pure Math II

Only 9 people out of 50 made it through I, and of those I think only half passed II. A course which is entirely proof based really changes how you analyze problems.

intro psych, i really wish that when i took it, i had more time to get into it, ill take development, i hope, before im done with school.

the most fun class is any class i have with a particular, crazy teacher at the place. the guy is nuts and his class is a riot.

For sure. 2 days at the alley a week for a full semester rocked. I was beside myself when I saw it as an elective.

Pottery. We had an awesome professor who used to be a street performer in San Francisco and goes to burning man every year with a giant flaming pipe organ that he built with his friends.
