Hope this doesn't come back to haunt me in the future, but like you all said, it's a lot of time on work on the (very small) off chance that this will be a problem. And if I do, I'll keep the "History of the Dog" class in mind - it sounds interesting...
That's one approach, but I'm never a fan of "don't worry about your GPA" in that it's an incomplete sentence. Don't worry about your GPA ..... when you're not going to grad school, when you're going right into industry, when you're going into the military, when you're going to an open enrollment university, when you own your own business, when you're retired.... but there ARE plenty of times to worry about your GPA- certainly someone going to grad school should at least be a *little worried about GPA under 3.0
I did work for a good GPA by taking TESU classes, and I got into every grad school I applied to. Did it matter? Don't know, but it didn't hurt. You're still MANY credits away from 150, so in your shoes, I'd bring that up over 3 at a bare minimum (Even though your cumulative is already there) before I stopped working the problem. Easy to do with a single 6 cr course if you earn an A.
