So what's everyone's favorite college course so far and why? Is it because it concerns your major, it's super easy or you don't have homework? Or perhaps there's a certain hot guy or gal that's making the subject much more interesting.

I really love my acting class, and my communications class is a real pleasure (Communications is my major).

Well, I would have to say that my Econ 306 course is my favorite. The prof is really cool. He's like 27, so he still knows how to have fun and act young. Econ is my major, but it is so dull. But it will help me in my career, thats all that matters. :)

My favorite Class that I have now is English 119 which is a fantasy fiction class. I have been holding off on taking this one for a while because I figured it'd be cool to take in my last year. We have read The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, The Blue Sword, and one of my personal favorites Men-At-Arms by Terry Pratchett. The only one that I hadn't read before was The Blue Sword. We've got a couple more books to read, but they sound pretty cool.

Oh yeah, we also had to watch the movie Willow, and some really cheesy Michelle Pfeiffer/Matthew Broderick movie called Ladyhawke. All in all this class has been rocking.

When I take an actual college acting class I think it'll easily become my favorite, but right now my favorite class is World Lit II. We've discussed and read some of my favorite books, and in general it's just a wonderful class. Of course my band class is pretty awesome too. I'm certainly not the best player in the lot, but when we're all really in the zone so to speak, well, I'm just blown away.

So far my top favorites have been history courses, particularly Segregation and Freedom Movements, History and Hollywood (title misleading, but it's US history starting at the Great Depression and structured by presidencies, movies are supplement material to analyze how Hollywood viewed politics and currant events), History of the People's Republic of China. All these courses gave great insight and was just really really fun to sit and listen to. I also learned a lot.

Other favorites include the Rhetoric of Monstrosity, a course on movie soundtracks, mammalian physiology, and genetics.

My favourite course is "Voice Acting For Cartoons". It's probably the most fun thing in my life at this moment in time. Yes, it's just that cool.

I only have two courses as such and my favourite is the studio based artwork. The other involves lectures and the lecturers are rather dull... sorry guys, but if you read words like 'avant garde neo primitivism' without giving any explanation or real context you won't hold my interest....!

My favorite college course right now is Film Appreciation because all we do is watch movies and talk about them. We have watched A Beautiful Mind, Stagecoach, Birth of a Nation, Gold Rush, Casablanca, and Citizen Kane .
