6) If you've got a romantic urge for adventure, check out Barnard College's course on “The Road Movie”, which studies Easy Rider and Thelma and Louise, while also discussing the genre's literary precursors, like On the Road and The Odyssey.

7)If hitting the road doesn't satisfy your rebellious streak, sign up for Brown University's course on “American Degenerates”, in which students discuss how early British-American writers embraced the grotesque, monstrous, “not our kind” status bestowed on them by the mother country and reflected their zeal for cultural and physical degeneracy in their literature.

8) Those artsy types at the Rhode Island School of Design can put down their paintbrushes and take “The Art of Sin and the Sin of Art”which contemplates the relationship between sin and the art world. The course catalog invites you to “lust with the saints and burn with the sinners”.

9) If talking about death several times a week in class sounds like a good time to you, try Purdue University's “Death and the Nineteenth Century” course. Every poem and novel in the course deals with the 19th-century conception of mortality and the world beyond.

10) At Centre College in Danville, Kentucky, students can take “Art of Walking”,in which students not only read literature by noted perambulators like Kant and Nietzsche, but go for neighborhood strolls with their professor and his dog. Most college programs offer interesting courses to introduce you to new and fascinating subject matters.

Take advantage of the many possibilities offered to you by sitting down with your advisor to talk about course options and then really thinking about the courses you choose to take.
