Spring 2021 - This seminar was great! Paige is super nice and clear on what she expects of you and your assignments. Each week features a different subject and they are all super intereseting. We focused on Science controversies like HeLa cells and the MMR vaccine. The workload is also very manageable with some weekly assignments with a big project divided throughout the quarter. Overall, Paige and the course are both great and I highly recommend this class!
