Winter 2024 - Professor Jay is the sweetest professor I have had while at UCLA. She deeply cares about the students and provides opportunities to learn and do research outside of class. The grade distribution was fair, and the length of the assignments were manageable. There could be better organization on Bruinlearn, and an outline of what would be covered in lecture. However, the integration and availability of the videos from the online section made the class accessible if you could not attend a given lecture. I enjoyed being able to go into her lab to process samples, and felt like she was passionate about the integration of civil engineering and the community. I hope to take a class with her again in the future.
