Dr. Shay is one of the best and top 3 I have taken at UCLA!!! She is available to discuss issues with you; her lectures are phenomenal; and her methodology of teaching is absolutely lovely! Very easy with her grading, and very reasonable with her tests. I took her for the graphic novel course and she was always giving us new concepts and ideas. MUST take a course with her if you need it. You will not regret it! She's a great asset to the faculty. ENGLISH 129 actually, but not listed below.
