Spring 2019 - I love Professor Nguyen-Vo! She's EXTREMELY intelligent, kind, sweet, and funny, and her lectures are super engaging. The slides don't show all the details of her lectures, so you actually have to pay attention to what she's saying. (She also doesn't post them to encourage coming to class.) The readings are really interesting, especially her own, but they can be dense sometimes. However, just remember to keep up with the readings and go to her office hours, they help! She loves talking to students who care about the class/topics and is super open-minded. I would love to take another class with her.
