Winter 2018 - No disrespect to this class or the professor, but this was definitely the easiest class I have ever taken at UCLA (take this as a compliment Dr. McGinty). There are no midterms or a final. Your grade is just based off two quizzes and four 1-2 page article summaries (which he practically gives everyone full credit on). This class was also the least work I have done for any class at UCLA. Dr. McGinty is pretty nice. Take this class while you can because he is retiring soon!
