Spring 2021 - So, this was an interesting class in that it was not like your traditional course with instruction, quizzes, and exams. The course was more geared around class discussions on various topics which I found very relevant and interesting. He assigns biweeklies, readings, one film review (or deep dive essay pertinent to the readings) as a midterm, and a final paper. If you’re looking for a super easy class this is not it! But if you want to learn and be intellectually stimulated this is the class for you. He’s also very approachable and I felt like he honestly cared to help us when we had questions and concerns. I would definitely recommend this class.
