College Course Suggestions

[Laila]

So how about we give some course suggestions to our fellow college students.


I have two good suggestions

1) Cultural Anthropology was such a fun class. Literally i always felt eager to come to every lecture. It wasnt a hard class at all, there were a lot of essay writing, but it wasnt bad at all. I loved learning about new cultures and traditions. At the end of our class session, we had a cultural day. I brought in Kabuli rice and mantu. And i gotta tell you, everyone was trying to get third servings. I gave a small presentation. I spoke a sentence in Pashto and Dari. Students actually liked the sound of Pashto I also brought in my Afghan dress, jewelry, and plenty of pictures.

2) Zoology was a blast. Though it is a very hard class and lab, for some it may not be worth taking it since it falls under the Biology major.....but i gotta say it was quite fun. We did a dissection two times a week....anything from sharks, frogs, pigs, rats, rabbits, cats, fish, pigeons, etc. It was hard, i am not going to lie.....it was purely memorization of every single thing. But well worth it if you are a more hands on kind of person.


So i need some suggestions for classes. I really want to take World Women's Studies, World Religions, and Early Childhood Development (for fun).Has anyone taken these courses, any advice?

hmm... Cultural anthropology... does this satisfy undergraduate admission requirement for CSU and UC campuses? if so which area do you know?

Yes, definitely CSU and UC. It falls under Social Sciences and/or Art and Humanities

It fulfills both those required semester/quarter units

For CSU it fulfills the General Education Breadth Requirements
For UC it fulfills Social Sciences requirements

^thanks , thats awesome. I was looking for course suggestions for these requirements. because these areas are not part of the major for some so its better to take fun easy classes

[Laila]

^ yeah it is good to take fun classes here and there, it broadens your horizons. And knowledge is never ending right

Its a very interesting class

I took an ethics course once and it was a pretty easy, manageable one. There was a considerable amount of reading but it was interesting material and it would stick with you. I'd recommend it to anyone who is interested in this kind of stuff. However, if you are an unethical individual, you may have a tough time at first.

if you want an easy class, just take statistics 101 or astronomy.

I like astronomy a lot because all i did was sit back on the chairs in the planetarium and stare at the fake stars.

Take an intro to ethics course.
