Winter 2024 - Interesting class about social psychology. Had 2 midterms and a final, with 2 papers. Wasn't super hard, but there was a lot of content to learn about. The professor is good, but slightly quick during his lecture, so during class you had to pay attention from start to finish. There is a learning curve to his tests, but as the class went on you are able to improve your scores as I did. Overall recommend this class, as it was interesting, but not the easiest comm class that is offered.
