I looked through the other thread that was posted around a year ago and found a couple ideas. I am looking for some more up to date opinions for some easy classes you took at ISU. I'm looking for a GPA booster preferably in the 300 level but 200 level works as well.

History of Rock and Roll. Best class ever at ISU. It is a 300 level.
Introduction to Beverages is awesome as well. Don't take anything worthwhile after it though, bc you are either real sleepy or real drunk when you get done with it.

Note: History of R&R has pre-reqs (my sole purpose for taking Music 102 this fall).

HDFS 276.


See my above post.

Role of sexuality in human development. Critical analysis of media and research. Communication and decision-making skills relating to sexuality issues and relationships.

HDFS 283 - Family and Personal Finance (took this one online)
HDFS 239 - Housing and Consumer Issues

Both are insanely easy. In 239, I was in a class of roughly 50 students, and I'd say there were maybe 10 guys in there.

Yeah, I was taking my time writing a reply, while looking for other classes that might be worth mentioning, but after finding nothing, I just put HDFS 276 down (and that was about 5 minutes later so I didn't see your post until later.)

Electricity 101. You may need to do more self help projects if you are Gen Ed.

I would like to get in to HD FS 276 but there is only one section of it and the time conflicts with one of my required classes:sad:

Do they have one of those art classes with the nude female models? I'd take that course.

Yes, I know they have classes with nude models. But, not sure if you have to be in a certain major for those or have taken the required prerequisites.

I can't believe I'm a Junior and still don't know this, how do you find what classes a certain professor is teaching?

right now I have Mgmt 310 in my schedule. Has anyone taken this recently, I have heard that it is easy. Also, I'm still open to more suggestions.
