Winter 2024 - I loved this class!! I cannot recommend it enough! I took it for a Global Studies requirement and let me tell you all the films were very interesting and I actually enjoyed class. The class is 3 hours long, so I was a little worried about my ADHD and sitting still for that long, but the movies were so interesting I actually found myself easily staying focused and on task for the discussions. The only 2 grades for the class are participation/attendance and the final paper. The final paper was pretty easy because the prompts were interesting and we fleshed out most the prompts during the discussions in class, so I already had a good idea what I was going to write about the whole quarter. The professor is very nice, super knowledgable, and overall a great guy to take a class with. He made an effort to learn everyone's names.
