Quarter: Spring 2024

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, if you are in the Biotechnology Cluster, take Film in Biotechnology with Krystal Navarro.

This class freaking rocked! Not only were there no tests, the weekly homework was to watch a movie and read two, often short articles. The seminar met once a week for three hours, but there were plenty of breaks and I never felt as if I was burnt out. You do have to go to all of the seminars, unless you let Krystal know in advance, and you should participate. Participation was not daunting though as the subjects that were taught in class were honestly super interesting. The grading system is contract grading, so as long as you put in a little bit of effort into assignments, you should totally get an A+. You will do one group project reviewing a movie, an analytical essay for a movie for the midterm, and then a short biotechnology story for the final. In total, the assignments took me a total of like four hours for the entire quarter. This seminar was freaking awesome, and if you can you should take it. Krystal is super nice and accommodating, and you always feel listened too. If there's one takeaway any new first years get from reading this review, it is to take the Film in Biotechnology Seminar!
