Quarter: Fall 2019
Grade: A

I really enjoyed this class. I learned a lot about Labor Laws that I never knew about that will help me tremendously in my career. There were so many amazing lectures by so many notable speakers. I felt really special getting to hear from everyone. I will say my two pieces of constructive feedback for this class was the how little the final examination was gone over. The other would be having to go to labor events outside of class for five hours. I had trouble fitting the five hours into my schedule because most of the events never landed on a time I could do them, since I am currently taking 21 units and working at 2 studios in downtown LA. Perhaps instead of five hours, four hours might be a bit more doable. I had trouble getting that final hour in. And in terms of the final examination, I simply did not know what to do to study. I thought the papers were good because I found a topic I was passionate about and was able to write ten pages about it. The reflection paper was also a really doable three pages. You do read three simple to understand 80 page-books in this class that are mostly written by the professors describing labor corruption. They have pictures. You also read articles, but none of it is mandatory. Even lecture isn't. But I recommend you go so you understand the concepts better. This class did have a collective-bargaining exercise that was my favorite activity in the class. Basically, you pretend you're either the employers or the workers and you debate your case for different topics like higher vs lower wages. Overall, I learned a lot about the struggles of much of the working class. This class opened my eyes to a lot of corruption that goes on in the world, and gave me inspiration to protect myself and my family as well as others. I would definitely recommend this class to a friend. I had a great time.

Super easy class, do the papers on the early side and there's extra credit available. The final exam is pretty easy and if you do well on the papers, there's no need to study. Highly recommend for an easy GE

Quarter: Fall 2021
Grade: A

This was an easy GE to take, all you have to do is 5 hours of community service and a 10 page paper that involves any injustice but the good thing is that you have the beginning of the quarter towards the end . The discussion sections are short. However the only thing I didn't like about this class is that the professor would just talk the entire time and have no in class inclusivity, so it got boring really quick.

Purchasing books ??

- Miguel Contreras: Legacy of a labor leader ($12)

- Mike Garcia and the justice for janitors ($15)

(Both books originally cost me $40 with tax )

condition: Like new, never highlighted
