Fall 2023 - Last review was totally written by Rivera, bahaha. Rivera is laidback. Class has no structure though. Not sure if it's just him who made his own slides make no sense, but nothing he shared with our class ever made sense or kept me interested. I just sat there counting down the seconds until class ended. His midterm (historical fiction) was weird, final was even weirder (group project)... Attendance matters, but he provides plenty of extra credit opportunities. He also likes to say uh-huh a lot and answer his students' questions with a question. Like I said, not my cup of tea. I'm at UCLA, not UCD-CC.
