Fall 2021 - The material for this class is very interesting, and Professor Bahtina makes it very approachable. She's very friendly and approachable, and I'll definitely be taking more courses with her in the future. This class is mostly based on homework assignments and a group project, none of which I found too difficult, nor were they graded particularly harshly. Keep in mind that participation and attendance are graded. I would recommend taking this class, the information is something I that I feel everyone should know, and Professor Bahtina was great.
