Simple question really. Is there a downside to taking those mickey mouse courses in college, like "history of rock" or "folkloric dancing", if they literally have nothing to do with your major?

I have two required classes till I graduate, but need to take two more "whatever" classes to round out my student status to full-time.

Nah. Do graphic design or something, too.
>>
No, that's the point of electives, they can be whatever.
>>
OP here, thanks for that. I keep visualizing someone looking over my transcripts, future employer perhaps--and seeing one of those classes and being all, "the fuck is this?" like it'll damage my resume.
>>
Take something of interest or something that helps you in understand the world better. Economics, Government, Psychology, something like that.

As long as your entire college career isn't these silly classes, you're good, OP.

Unless you apply to grad school (or law school or the like) NO ONE will ever look at your transcripts again. No one. They might be interested in your GPA, but not your individual courses or grades.
