I have some friends in science who took English: Shorter Genres. They both enjoyed it very much. Also, this course is commonly taken by students outisde of Humanities. When I took this class, there were more students outside of the English department than there were students in it.

English 1A03: Shorter Genres or Classics 1B03: Intro to Myth and Lit. Both are awesome.

I've taken peace studies and art history before. Really good courses, but a lot of reading and essay writing.

Is there any course that you do not need to read a lot paper, and no essay? I am not good at writing essay, especially humanity papers.
I can do memorization as well as understand the material then do applied questions.
Right now I am looking into ART and anthropology courses, anyone have any ideas?

1st year linguistics courses. No essays to write, just weekly exercises.

Well the vast majority of Humanities courses have essays, so you may be at a disadvantage there, but I believe that Linguistics course don't have them. I've never taken them personally, but that's what I've heard.

Take first year multimedia courses - minimal writing, creative and practical stuff. They fall under humanities.
