Poetry seems odd, but it actually forced me out of my comfort zone and taught me a lot about word choice and how the flow of even a history essay can change how it is perceived.
My school makes every student take what amounts to an unofficial minor in communication. There are 4 general courses about communication (Argument and Research, Public Speaking, Business Communication and Intercultural Communications) along with 1 major specific course focused on the communication skills specifically required for the industry you will use your degree. It was a very useful program to include in the requirement for a degree and there were no timed essays.
