Fall 2022 - This cluster in general was amazing. All of the material was actually engaging and interesting, and I have learned a lot so far. The professor's and TA's all really care about students understanding material rather than just caring about grades. The assignments for the class weren't that difficult, and they were actually fun to complete at times. This cluster has educated me on so many new things regarding food, sustainability, meat, etc... We also haven't had a midterm and the final tends to be just an essay with a topic that you have the ability to chose. I highly recommend taking this cluster as it is interesting and pretty simple. If you aren't a science major this will benefit you even more as it covers 3 science GE's, including the lab one.
