VaNdY: regarding course changes

<p>(1) I am a new freshman, majoring in engineering. I have to take an elective, and my brochure says it has to be from either humanities or social science or technology-society. Does this mean that I can't take art studio courses like photography and painting as an elective?
(2) Are there any reviews of courses on the net? (something like ratemyprofessors.com)? ratemycourses would be a good idea, don't you think so? I'm hoping for an easy A</p>
