Professor Herrera is funny, relatable, and passionate about what he teaches. He is also incredibly friendly; so much so that he is the only professor whose office hours I felt comfortable going to (on multiple occasions too). Super understanding and accommodating with everything; posted lectures online after the TA strike started and made the final optional. He will also provide PTEs for you if you need one! As for the material, it's a great mix of urban theory and real-life society. Readings are covered in lecture, but would recommend at least skimming them. Attendance isn't required but would recommend going bc it's not recorded. Two response papers, participation discussion posts, and two super simple quizzes. 10/10 recommend!!!!
Fun class. Professor is friendly and as long as you do class readings, you will be fine.
