Winter 2024 - Loved this seminar and professor. There was a ton of reading each week- oftentimes dense- but we always discussed the readings in detail in the following class. No exams, a few papers, a group presentation and service learning. The service learning consisted of teaming up in a group and partnering with an outside organization to work on a project, such as forming an art exhibit or creating an event for the LGBTQ community. Lots of self reflection, so be prepared to share and listen to others. This class was intimidating at first because of it’s small size and sitting in a circle, but Dr. Marquez was very passionate about the subjects and made it feel more comfortable. I got a lot of this class and would recommend it.
