This class was really easy. You had to partner with an organization and work from there. I believe there was a essay you must write but it was very easy work.attendance was not necessary since this course was mainly focused on working with an organization.

I don't recommend this class. The workload is insane- you have to write 2-3 pages every week for weekly reflections, a 6-7 page midterm paper, and a 6-8 page single-spaced final paper, alongside your volunteer work with an organization. The TAs graded the reflections and papers very harshly; the class average was B before the final. Moreover, you have to participate a lot during a 2-hour discussion section to get the participation grades. I thought this class was about volunteering but it was not. Volunteering was at most 5% of the grade. It was basically a Sociology class that required too much writing.

Class was easy and heavily participation based. You can skim the readings to get through the discussions and the weekly reflections. The midterm and the final take some time and rely heavily on the lectures.

Lecture once a week. Discussion once a week. Attendance required. Two papers. Community engagement through volunteering.

class requires a volunteering portion that can be time consuming if you have an in-person assignment. the class does take up a decent chunk of time due to the lectures and discussions but it is informative and somewhat interesting.
