Please recommend the MUST-TAKE WashU courses.

<p>As the titles says.</p>

<p>Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>Well, what are you interested in?</p>

<p>I personally think everyone should take a class in the art school at least once (I’m an engineering student), but that’s just me.</p>

<p>If you ever have the chance to take Acting I with Anna Pileggi, do it. Or any course with Anna, really. I kind of took it on a whim and I learned SO much about myself and just about life in general. Anna is also a genius, which helps. I apply things I learned in that class every day of my life. Most people in my class weren’t your typical theater kids, either - there were a ton of engineers, a kid from the football team, etc… so you wouldn’t be out of place. Taking one class with Anna Pileggi will make every dollar of your tuition entirely worth it, though :)</p>

<p>Thanks so much for your advices! Which year would you say to take it? Freshman, sophomore, junior or senior?</p>

<p>Are there any MUST HAVE professors too? hehe…</p>

<p>orgo .</p>

<p>^ lol :P</p>

<p>if you’re interested in learning an instrument, college is a good time. lessons (maybe excluding piano? anyone know?) are pretty relaxed and laid-back, and you can get by nicely putting in ~30 minutes a day, which is great for a college-level class…</p>

<p>don, i want to continue piano but will i have enough time to practice with all the classes i will be taking for biology and premed?</p>

<p>The American Cultural Studies department has my favorite classes: [American</a> Culture Studies Program at Washington University in St. Louis](<a href=“http://artsci.wustl.edu/~acsp/courses.php]American”>http://artsci.wustl.edu/~acsp/courses.php)</p>

<p>@goOPPA - I’m sure it could be done (plenty of premed students do piano). For me music was great because I enjoy it enough for it to feel like a required break from homework every night, which isn’t so bad :)</p>

<p>If you’re not sure though, you always have the option of taking lessons Pass/Fail, or not taking it for credit at all.</p>

<p>if you’re not in the b-school, then personal finance. it’s incredibly popular, although also very difficult - definitely take it pass/fail. it was one of the few courses outside my major that I feel like I’ve really ended up using.</p>
