Fall 2023 - My favorite professor from the cluster!! Her lectures were always super engaging, included interesting information that was often funny too, and her quiz questions were usually simple to answer. Take notes if it's helpful, but her slides are usually really good so I just used them to make a quizlet to study for the quizzes. Class: You take three quizzes that cover material from each professor that taught within those three weeks (ex. quiz 1 = weeks 1-3) that are 16 questions. The best 2/3 scores are used for your final grade. The rest of your grade comes from participation during your discussion section (nothing crazy happens here, we almost always left early and was pretty chill) and two papers you write. The topics are related to what you learned in class and usually you have to relate that to other species, humans, and your personal life and these are graded by your TA out of 100, so it depends on how tough your TA is with grading.
