I loved this class and Professor Rensel. She made even the challenging content easy to understand. Midterm and final was fair, especially if you fill out the study guide throughout the quarter.

This was the best class I've taken at UCLA, hands down. Dr. Rensel is extremely approachable, accommodating, and she cares a lot about student learning and student enjoyment. The class content was super interesting, and I appreciated that she adapted it to what's going on in the world. Also, for anyone who is wondering, I thought the class was a pretty easy A too. Do the assignments, get excited about the topics, and reach out to her if you need any help.

This review is for all 3 classes that I have taken with Professor Rensel.

Rensel is an amazing professor who takes the time to get to know her students. I took her stress and society course M144 and learned so much about public health that I did not know about before. I also took Socgen M102 with her and learned an immense amount. Finally, I took M140 with her. It was the first time that she taught that course, but she did a wonderful job at making it interesting and engaging. She is understanding of student struggles and makes sure to be as reasonable as possible. I adored her as a professor. Truly lucky to have been able to take 3 courses with her.
