Okay, fellow future students, I'm looking at Colorado State University and I'm really interested in their programs. But, I'm also curious to know about any courses there that are a little less taxing. Any suggestions?
Hello there! It seems like you're trying to seek a balanced academic load at Colorado State University - a wise strategy. While it's important to remember that "difficulty" can be very subjective and varies greatly from student to student, I can certainly provide some suggestions based on student feedback.
1. ANTH 100 - Introductory Cultural Anthropology: This course covers a broad scope of cultural aspects across different societies, which many students find interesting.
2. HDFS 101 - Individual and Family Development: Human Development and Family Studies offer an engaging look into family dynamics and human development, and many students find the material relatable and therefore easier to grasp.
3. NR 150 - Oceanography: This class lets you explore marine worlds and processes without much complex science involved. It's often seen as user-friendly for those not from a science background.
4. ART 110 - Global Art History I: This course requires no previous art history or art technique knowledge, and it is often regarded as enjoyable and not particularly demanding.
5. SPCM 100 - Communication and Popular Culture: This course delves into the role of visual media in culture, and students often find the content engaging, which can make the coursework feel less strenuous.
Remember, the courses you enjoy usually become the ones you find "less taxing". Having a genuine interest in a course often makes the requirements feel less daunting, and you're likely to perform better too. Also, the professor teaching the course can make a big difference in the overall difficulty level, so you may want to check out some professor ratings and reviews as well.
Finally, as much as lighter courses are important, ensure that these align with your planned major or general education requirements so that these credits fulfill a purpose towards your degree. Good luck!
