ERC GE Requirement

<p>Can someone explain how the ERC fine arts requirement works? Can I take a fine arts course my first quarter in freshmen year?</p>

<p>We need to take 2 fine arts courses. One western and one non-western. You can the fall quarter if you want.</p>

<p>Do any of them have to be upper division?</p>

<p>^no 10 char</p>

<p>What’s an easy fine arts class then? You know, to use as a schedule filler that creates time for the harder classes’ work…
It seems like they done away with the Beatles class to my great disappointment. =(</p>

<p>I also took Music 13 - it’s non-western music, focuses on a specific area of the world depending on what quarter you take it. Pretty easy.</p>

<p>They may very possibly still have the Beatles class in the winter or spring.</p>

<p>Good recommendations but both are not offered at the moment… =/
I guess I’ll tackle foreign language then to get it over with.</p>

<p>Any other GE fine arts easy classes worth mentioning?</p>

<p>ADD to previous post^</p>

<p>Just to clarify, I have to pass 4 semesters of a foreign language to fulfill the GE requirement?</p>

<p>^Four quarters, yes.</p>

<p>If you take the language placement exam and place into 1D (the fourth level) then you take that one class and then you’ll be done with the requirement.</p>

<p>Cool; so I presume that if I start at 1B (literally); I’ll be finished at 1D?</p>

<p>Right, so that means you’ll have to take 1B, 1C, and 1D</p>

<p>what are some easy GE’s to take?</p>

<p>Thanks ucsandiego915! You’re awesome!</p>

<p>Art/ music would be a good place to look. But most of those classes aren’t available in the 1st semester. Just tackle them later on in the year when they open up.</p>
