Winter 2024 - Professor Steinberg can be very engaging and you can tell she has a kind soul. Participation matters you need to be there and sign your name for credit and also be engaged during the class discussion which tends to be easy because it's always interesting. I will admit there were a few times that she really upset me by not showing up to class or being like an hour late and as a commuter student it really felt disrespectful to me and my peers' time. There was no midterm or final exam, your grade here consists of essays and weekly posts but none of them are too long I think the longest paper was the last essay which was 6 pages long. She takes forever to grade so that can be stressful, you won't know what your grades are until the class is already over, I mean she did not grade a thing throughout the whole quarter. There are weekly assignments to find an immigration article and summarize which was super easy because she just required a few sentences for those. I am not sure if I would take her again because she is not very organized, and she assigns a lot of reading most of which interesting but it is just a ridiculous amount and they are all so long, it doesn't feel like you need to actually do them to succeed imo.
