Sure, there are several courses at Penn State University Park that are often favorably reviewed by students for their manageable workloads. Remember, though, that what one person considers "easy" might differ based on individual interests and strengths.

1. BiSci 3: Environmental Science: This course doesn’t have any prerequisites and covers important information about environmental science in an easy-to-understand way. Students praise the course for being engaging and not super demanding.

2. Geog 30: Environment and Society in a Changing World: This is another course which many students find manageable. It covers global sustainability issues and their societal implications.

3. BBH 101: Introduction to Biobehavioral Health, which is a straightforward course that provides an overview of biobehavioral health. Some find this class to be both interesting and not overly challenging.

4. Art H 202: Renaissance to Modern Art: If you’re interested in art, this might be a good fit for you. It covers a broad range of art history but doesn't go too in-depth, making it fairly manageable for most.

5. Music 004: Musical theatre history, which covers the history of musical theatre from its origins to present. As long as you keep up with the lectures, the class is pretty straightforward.

Remember to confirm with your academic advisor to ensure that these options fit well with your plan of study and major requirements. You might have different interests or find other subjects easier based on your personal strengths and background. And hey, who knows? You might even discover a new passion!
