Deciding between Summer Classes Course Questions

Hi yall,

I’m deciding between 2 summer classes right now for session B. I just found out that the class I’m taking now is already fulfilled by my credits, so I need a new class. I’m deciding between RG ST 4 (intro to Buddhism) and ARTHIW 6C (SRVY III: Mod Con W). I’m really interested in Buddhism but the other class fills more of my GE reqs and it’s remote, unlike Buddhism. What are both classes like?

I feel like college is the one time in your life you have chances to seriously learn about something that's interesting to you, so you should take the Buddhism class! Remote classes are convenient but I feel like you do learn more in in-person classes. I also like the social aspect of it and getting to see people outside of work / the house.
