Spring 2023 - This course was such a breath of fresh air after having to take four classes in my spring quarter. Despite my other courses pilling upon work this course was smooth and easy to navigate. The assignments were simple enough to be done within a few minutes and the course itself was engaging when as a group we would discuss and share our opinions on salient issues happening in the world today. As a class, we were a team and held ourselves accountable in a respectful manner. While this being a 3-hour seminar is somewhat a turnoff, I still highly recommend the course for anyone looking for a simple but engaging course in their spring quarter.
