Spring 2016 - This review is actually for M71CW which is the spring seminar. Le Goff's seminar was on ethics in health and research. Super engaging class with interesting discussions. Way less work than I expected considering it's 6 units and a writing II class. Every week you submit answers to provided questions on pretty simple and interesting readings (~2 pages single spaced). Only other work is: one 2 page paper you write with a partner, give a presentation/ teach the class about an ethical topic one week, and one 6-8 page final research paper on the topic of your choice. Overall would definitely recommend, I learned a lot of interesting things and got a good grade without drowning in work.

Winter 2020 - Considering the amount of reading that you do in the class, Dr. Rensel sure made it a lot better. She was such a kind soul, and she was understanding of the circumstances. Her test questions also made you think, but they were fair overall. Her lectures were probably the best part.
