Took Gene Block's Fiat Lux and it was a great course. The class had a couple of readings but no assessments or assignments. I'd recommend it as a way to network with other motivated students and guest lecturers who are either professors or notable professionals. Gene is awesome. He is really nice and really cares about student input. Part of the reason he put the course together is so he could get more student feedback about UCLA's initiatives and interact with students on a more personal level. If you ever have the chance to take anything with him I would highly recommend it.
