    Quarter Taken: Fall 2021 In-Person
    Grade: A

    I took this class my first quarter at UCLA and really enjoyed it. The lectures were engaging and workload was not very heavy with only one final paper at the end. Homework was short responses to short articles or videos assigned and graded leniently. There was also an extra credit assignment available, but the class was also curved to be 100 points from a possible 110 points.
