Winter 2023 - Definitely recommend taking this class! You get assigned a Holocaust survivor to speak to for four sessions. The other classes are spent discussing with the other students in the class. The grade is 60% attendance, 10% introduction letter, and 30% for writing a letter to a future UCLA student about the experience. It is only an hour once a week and they serve food after the sessions with the survivors. It is a really meaningful and unique opportunity!

I took his Fiat Lux because of my experience with him in LGBT M114, the review for which I pasted below. As for German 19, it was a really interesting class and his knowledge of Medieval Germany is just amazing. Great teacher, great guy. Selling the books Tristan and Isolde, and The Nibelungenlied for this class. Message me at ************* if you're interested. Professor Schultz is such a wonderful, charismatic, and knowledgeable teacher. This was one of my absolute favorite classes of the year and probably will be for the rest of college. I highly disagree with the review that states "you have a distinct disadvantage if you're not part of the LGBT community". I am not a part of it and did extremely well in the course. It has less to do with your involvement in the community and more to do with your interest in the course material. I personally was very interested in LGBT history and taking this course showed me a lot of new points of view in terms of how LGBT communities have evolved. I actually think this course would be more beneficial to those who are not a part of the community so that they may see the struggles the LGBT community has been through and how completely unnatural it is for America to be acting as prosecutors to such beautiful, strong human beings. I agreed with LGBT ideals before this class but after this class, I became an ally and joined the cause instead of sitting on the sidelines, and this is largely due to the passion I saw in Professor Schultz for his community. I ended up with an A in the class and I did all the readings. The writing grades are based entirely off your TA. I had a pretty chill one but my other friends were not so lucky and ended up with a B. Overall, I definitely recommend him and would take him again in a heartbeat but unfortunately my major has nothing to do with LGBT studies and cash for fun electives of personal interest does not exist. Btw, selling Zami: a new spelling of my name by Audre Lorde. Email me at ************* if you're interested. Also have past quizzes and papers.

Coming into the class I was very interested in linguistics, but for some reason this class was just very boring for me. Professor Stevens is a nice guy and enthusiastic, but the way he presents the material is somewhat somniferous...I also disliked the videos he showed. The material in the reader is interesting, but the presentation was only okay.
