You might be asking, "why would I waste my summer taking classes if I don't have to?" I understand that most people don't take a summer class unless they have to so they can graduate on time or something. But honestly, theres a much better reason to take a summer class or two than that.
Being a senior about to graduate, I completely understand in hind-sight how I could have eased my class load each semester by taking a summer course every now and then. I had a couple of semesters that were really busy when they didn't have to be. If just for the simple incentive that you could have a really lax last semester of college, you should totally take a summer course.
Another example of why its a good idea is because some classes can just be more beneficial if you take them in the summer when you have more time on your hands. My boyfriend had to take that Active Lifestyle course and he did it during the summer. Not only did he actually have the time to go work out (which usually neither of us do during the regular semester) but he formed a legit workout routine and stuck to it all summer.
So even if you don't necessarily need to take a summer course, you should really think about it. It could mean the different between having a manageable semester--and therefore better grades--or not.
