I thought that this class was a great experience. I was nervous going into it because I have not enjoyed political theory in the past, but this class made the content more interesting by depending primarily on the weekly readings and building around that. Overall, I thought that this class was challenging without being overly hard and makes you engage with the material. The professor and TA well-prepare you for the midterm and final as well as make them pretty straight forward. I especially liked the discussion sections for this class because they were lively and greatly contributed to my understanding of the readings.

This is the first upper division non-major class and political science class I’ve ever taken at UCLA, but I had an amazing experience. The readings are very manageable (a little boring) and both the professor and TA expand on the topics of the readings in class/discussion. The midterm and final are essay questions about the readings, but the professors and TAs make sure that you’re well-prepared for them. The essay questions don’t try to trick you or confuse you, they just ask that you identify and contextualize the readings. I would take this class again!

The Prof is very passionate and likes to try to engage the class, but the material is a bit dry. Her exams require you to have actually read the materials by having an identification portion. She does make it easy to id the writer and provides a link to all the texts for free. Overall, she was alright, but the material was dreadfully boring.

Lectures can be less than exciting, but the professor is kind and the materials in these course are free and posted online. Some of the readings can be enjoyable, and the course becomes much more interesting in the final week when comparisons are drawn between Athenian Democracy and America's democratic republic. For finals, review readings and pick four out of five quotes for which to provide textual, rhetorical, and historical analysis. It was a doable and rewarding course--I would take this class again.
