    One of my favorite classes I’ve taken at ucla!

    Quarter Taken: Fall 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    Amazing professor. Highly recommend as she herself stated that she wanted to make the class as easy as possible because her primary goal was for us to really learn about the material. Easy GE while being a fun and engaging course. Her lectures weren't recorded, but even if you didn't attend, so long as you kept up with the readings it wasn't completely necessary (but worth attending). Discussion sections were mandatory.
