Winter 2018 - So this review is actually for Anthro 1 - Human Evolution, which I took with Prof. Brooke Hauser (she also goes by Brooke Scelza). It was a great class, the professor is very fair on grading and the subject matter is very interesting. Her research, which she did with the Himba people of southern Africa, was also super cool, especially how she integrates concepts, photos, and stories from her research into the course. I'll be taking another class with her next quarter and I'm looking forward to it!

Winter 2023 - Dr. Lazarreff is one of the best professors at UCLA. Take this class if you need an easy A. Note-taking and attendance are not required. The only thing we had due the entire quarter was our final which consists of 5 short answer true/false questions that DO NOT relate to the lectures. He is more so testing you on common sense and how well you can argue your answer. Example question: "True or false. Science is the accumulation of knowledge." Wish I could take him every quarter! It's a shame he teaches just the one class in Winter.
