Fall 2006 Courses

[Noah]

Hey everyone,

This is a call for advice. I'm looking for a 4th class to take next fall as an elective, and I'm hoping that you could suggest something decent. The criteria are simple:
(1) It is interesting
(2) It is PDF-able
(3) It is not excessively difficult
(4) It won't require too much work

I have been looking at POL388 - Causes of War on someone's suggestion. If you know anything about this class in particular, I'd be happy to hear it.

Also, please don't suggest MUS265. Despite the fact that it is the sequel to the best class that I have ever taken, it unfortunately conflicts with a departmental that I have to take.

Thanks for your help!

I don't really have good suggestions for you, Noah, because I've been looking mostly at Mol courses. I did take AAS 201 last year to try a "fun" class, but it turned out to be kind of a let-down despite Cornel West being the teacher.

I'm really interested to see other people's answers to this question though. Also, I've never taken a psych course before. Am I missing anything spectacular? Can you guys recommend one that I could possibly audit?

Thanks!

Hmm, a lot of the psych courses are super good (mind you I may be the tiniest bit biased). That being said, the offerings next semester are a tad dismal. I highly recommend PSY 312 which is the decision making class a bunch of us took last semester. It's one of the best classes I've taken at princeton and not too hard at all. Don't know if you can audit or whatever, but you should definately check it out.

Take Pol 330 (I'm not sure that that's the right number) on Campaigns and Elections! It was one of the best classes I've taken. Granted, I'm more interested in campaigns and elections than most. But everyone seemed to like it.
