Winter 2024 - Class and assignments were pretty straightforward. Also I didn't have the same experience as the other person :/, I say I definitely did not put in 20hrs a week all throughout the whole quarter. I really loved my discussion section if you have the chance I'd take Judy as a TA she was so helpful and her discussion slides were so helpful leading up to the final project. The community partner was slightly time consuming but expected. Also I think the lectures were easy to follow and I really liked when we had guest speakers. Attendance mandatory for discussion/lecture but you were allowed to miss two max I think.
