<p>Hey everyone. I am graduating FSU at the end of next spring! It's hard to believe it's already been 4 years and it's almost time to leave! Throughout my entire undergrad career I have worked very hard to complete my majors and I have put off taking fun classes at FSU to do this. So since I finish my majors out this fall I wanted to have a fun and exciting last semester at FSU! So I was wondering, what are some fun and easy classes at FSU? I have a variety of interests and am a total geek so I am interested in anything. I was considering taking an introduction to religion course (REL1300) or introduction to philosophy course. However, since these are intro courses for majors I am worried they might be difficult. Does anyone know if they are? Additionally, I have heard that Ancient Mythology (CLT3378) is an additional fun easy course to take. Is classical mythology (CLT3370) also good? Finally I saw a class for International Travel and Culture (HFT2716) that looked interesting and a class on Beer and Culture that might also be fun. I know the wine class is only limited to hospitality majors, but are there any other classes like it (besides the beer one)? Also I know my friend took Star Wars English a few years back but I have no idea what course number that is or if it is even available anymore. Along these lines are there any classes that have to do with Star Wars, Lord of the Rings or other pop culture phenomena? I have a variety of interests and am pretty much interested in learning anything. However like I said, since it is my last semester I wanted to focus on having fun and taking easier classes. Thanks for all your help!</p>

<p>How good is the civil and engineering program at FSU. Good or bad Professors?</p>
<p>clt3378 is a great course, take with branscome
also amh2097,race and ethinicity is great…take the one that is taught with film</p>
<p>AM2097 is great with Pamela Robbins. SHE IS HILARIOUS, loved every minute of that class. Though it is fun, it may not be as “easy” as you want. You actually have to go to class and take great notes. I had to write one paper in her honors class, though I think that the normal classes write two? Not sure, but she makes the info so fun that it won’t be so bad!</p>
<p>Didn’t really like CLT3378 (had it with Branscome as well). Kinda boring to me, not really into all the myths and whatnot, but if you are, you’ll love it. You have to write a few papers which sucked, but that was because I wasn’t “into” the material.</p>
<p>If you’re graduating you’re a Senior which means a 2000-level course won’t even count for anything. You have to take 3000/4000 level courses in order for them to count at this point so you can scratch HFT2176 off the list or any 2000-level course for that matter.</p>
<p>Not true at all. You can take 1000/2000 level courses any semester- just like you can take a 3000/4000 level class any semester. Most majors simply require that you take X number of credit hours at the 3000/4000 level class.</p>
<p>I know tons of people that are graduating this year that are taking classes that are at the 1000 or 2000 level. It’s not uncommon, especially if you’re trying to fulfill a minor. I know someone that’s trying to fulfill every requirement of a minor next semester, and they are taking at least 2 classes that are 2000 level.</p>
<p>Yeah, you can take any level course. My boyfriend was a senior and had to take a certain amount of credits extra so he could receive his second degree, so he used a bunch of easy classes to fill up his summer…like SYG1000 and PSY2012. You can take them.</p>
<p>I was told I need 3000/4000 level courses (told by Advisor and printed on my Grad. Check) in order to graduate. I can’t take any less otherwise it’ll just be a waste of money/time and won’t be able to graduate. I only have 3 more electives (I can choose any) to take after Spring, but have to be higher level.
I’m a History major with a minor in Art History.
Once Spring is over I will have already completed everything for my major & minor. It’s just 3 more electives…which is annoying.

<p>Apparently YOU haven’t taken enough 3000/4000 level classes to graduate. Once you have reached the required number of those courses for your major, you can take any level you would like to take.</p>
<p>Yeah, it sounds like you just haven’t met the specific 3000/4000 level credit requirement. I think it’s generally around 45 credit hours that you need for most majors. </p>
<p>For history, they say that too:
Remarks:
</p>
<p>So what it is is just that you have probably not taken the required 45 hours worth yet. Since you transferred from a community college, you probably came in with 0 credit hours of 3000/4000 classes, and whoever ran your grad check wanted to make sure that you knew of the requirement, so that you went here extra semesters just to fulfill it. </p>
<p>If you go into Blackboard, under the Secure Apps tab, you can click on an Undergraduate Graduation Check, and then there is usually a section that tells you somewhere in there how many 3000/4000 level credit hours you have.</p>
<p>My favorite classes were short story, economics, and philosophy. I liked short story because it pains me to read entire books (I blame the internet for shortening my attention span) and the stories were great. Economics was fun since a lot of it seemed like common sense. Philosophy probably had greater impact on me than any other class. It changed the way I thought and made me a lot more objective.</p>
