    Quarter Taken: Fall 2022 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    This is a super interesting class that introduces a very advanced, versatile method in sociology. Chris is such a cool, caring person, and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Some people express concerns over the use of math and coding, but I don't think it's too bad. After all, what matters more is the understanding of concepts and math and coding just follows that; no super advanced programming or math knowledge required.
