Summer 2017 - Due to financial reasons, I was only enrolled in the first week of class of summer 2017 before having to drop it. However, the class is organized between quizzes, weekly responses, and essays- and I reckon if you devote enough of your time to the reading/lectures and do the assignments, you are bound to get a decent grade. The material seemed interesting enough even in the first week, sad I had to drop it.
