Spring 2024 - Huppin has been one of the best professors I have had at UCLA. He is super engaging and the material is not too difficult. He is a very chill instructor. The class consisted of a midterm that had a total of maybe 20 questions (half multiple choice and half short answer), a thought paper that was 3 pages in length, and a final that is the same format as the midterm. Highly recommend.
