FOR SOC 151: COMPARATIVE IMMIGRATION Mr. Waldinger is known around the country for his publications in immigration. He is SO intelligent! He was a great professor. The class: -Class consisted of 7 weekly essays (300-500 words; 21% of grade) - One midterm (10-15 pages; 34% of grade) -One final (10-15 pages; 35% of grade) - Attendance is mandatory (10% of grade; miss more than three days and you lose 5% of grade). How to get an A in this class: -Do the readings and answer the discussion questions (if you do them you will save a lot of time when the midterm/final come). -Save your weekly memos as midterm questions are relatively the same thing. - Show up Overall: I thought this class was awesome. Immigration is such a heated topic and I learned a lot. I would definitely take it again.
