Fall 2020 - I took this my first quarter at UCLA and worked my ass off unnecessarily (didn't understand P/NP for fiat luxes) because there was a lot of reading/writing for a one unit class if you do everything assigned. That said, what an interesting class! Professor Waldinger is great. So kind and passionate about what he teaches. The live discussions were really engaging and the weekly discussion posts also really made you think. Super applicable to real life (we discussed plenty of current events/election stuff etc) and I learned a lot. I would absolutely take this again.
