Not to hijack the thread but I've got three friends about to retake physics 2002, two of those for their second or third time. Since they aren't OT ballers, I'll ask: does anybody know of a way around that class?

I don't remember the number, but I took a safety engineering class during intersession that was the easiest of the titled engineering classes that I took. Lots of reading and memorization, but it was manageable, if you didn't fall behind.

Mythology

I don't know if Warga is still around but it's basically story time 2-3 times a week. If you can show up to class it's an A.

I forget his name but i took it in 2002.

Easy as pie


Probably about the same time. He gave a quiz on the second day of class despite the fact that it was the add/drop period. I didn't enroll in the class until the next day and he marked me as a 0/20 on the quiz. I talked to him and convinced him to just not count the quiz because he refused to give me a makeup (it was an "attendance quiz"). So I went into the final under the promise that it would be a 0/0 and got a B on the final. I pulled up my grades a few days later and he went back and marked the attendance quiz as a 0/20 which dropped my overall grade to a B.

I emailed him asking why he changed the quiz grade and he said that he went back and thought about and didn't want to give credit to someone who skipped class - nevermind the fact that I wasn't even enrolled in the class when the quiz was given.

I even went to his department supervisor who basically shrugged the whole thing off.

Classical Studies (CLST) 2090. 3 credit hours and the easiest A you will ever make.

No. Your friends are morons for failing an easy Physics course 2-3x.

Don't remember what KIN it was but took Sports Marketing one summer. Homework was to watch sports with the sound off every night - couldn't get any better!

What's your major? The easiest class I took was ISDS 1100, which was learning Microsoft Office. Very Basic Excel, Word, and Powerpoint.

Physics

Because I switched majors and where I'm at in my degree path, I only have 9 hours next semester. I need to be full time since I sure as hell don't want to miss any football games, so I figured it'd be best to just take an easy A.

Can you do a 3 hour internship? My last semester I needed 2 classes to graduate and 6 additional hours for a double major. I worked 40 hours/week for a 6 hour internship.

Not sure if that's even an option for me.

I haven't heard about it before, but I'll ask my advisor. Seems like a cool idea.

If you're above whatever the limit is, take the PHYS 4995 seminar. It's only 1 credit hour (unless they've changed it), but it's one of the best opportunities to discuss a variety of topics in one class in the department. You can take 2995 and 4995 three times and use that as an elective, effectively.
