At my school, literature classes fufilled the humanities requirment. They have a lot of reading, but if you are able to pick the genre, you should be able to find someting enjoyable. One semester they offered a class in which you read Harry Potter books. I also took world religions and found it to be very interesting.
I took Medical-Bio Ethics at MCC. It was a video course where the instructor was at our campus but was video linked to the Paradise Valley campus at the same time. They didn't have an instructor there but they were live on camera. Does that make sense? We could be called on during class and we were on camera and "beamed" to the other campus as well. Very cool technology.
The subject matter was really great considering the medical aspect. We talked about Right to Die, End of Life issues, whether or not someone has the right to pull the plug...so to speak. It was a real eye opener to hear some people's opinions. Kind of scary, really. We also talked about cloning & genetic manipulation. Very interesting class. Highly recommend it.
Take a look at THE 210 - Contemporary Cinema.

I'm going to take my humanities class online through Rio starting on Monday. I have signed up for World Religion (phi243) but was wondering if anyone had any other recommendations for courses that would fill the humanities requirement. Maybe something you enjoyed or not! Has anyone taken World Religion? How about Philosophy? I know someone who took history of rock n' roll and did not like it at all. I would hate to be stuck in a class that I don't like. I mean this is the one class that I can actually pick!!!
Any thoughts or recommendations would be appreciated!!:wink2:
Thanks!
