Winter 2019 - Initially, this class was a lot of review from topics that were learned in high school. Carruth's section was the most unique, and was personally the most interesting as it looked at things with a more cultural context. Midterms and final are fairly easy, mostly multiple choice. Also, selling textbook for $85. text ********** if interested :)

Spring 2019 - Honestly, it's a really good class. The only reason I didn't get an A is because I slacked off and didn't do a lot of readings or go to class. A lot of my grade fell on my TA who was kind of a hard grader too. Participation and attendance in lecture matters!! The class is basically 3 group projects, one reflection letter, two 700-800 word essays and then a midterm and final. The midterm is only 10%. She also gives you a lot of opportunity for extra credit. I would recommend this class, but just go to class. She posts the slides but she says most of the stuff in lecture. Professor Carruth is amazing though! I would do the readings, they'll help you out. Selling the 3 books necessary for this class for $25. **********!

Spring 2020 - I would highly recommend taking any course offered by Professor Carruth. She is extremely organized and delivers engaging lectures each week; she cares deeply about student wellbeing; and she assigned a wide variety of readings, which kept the course interesting over the quarter. Moreover, her grading is fair (even generous) and the workload is not too bad. I would take this course again in a heartbeat.
