Winter 2025 - It not only taught me about motor sports, and how women developed in a traditionally male-dominated field in the last century, but also told me about the situation of women in fields other than motor sports in the last century (which I never knew before, I never knew that there were still so few female students in college in the 1980s). Seeing gender-related content on the Internet always makes me anxious and angry, but the instructors of this course always calm me down. Listening to these instructors makes me more tolerant of the views of groups I don’t understand. Also, the instructors invited women previously working in the racing community. That's super cool and she brought books she wrote. We watched a race in our last class. One of the instructors brings snacks for us every class! Would recommend this class to everyone.

Winter 2024 - Professor Williams is such a kind hearted person. She really opened my mind to different perspective when it came to feminism. She was very helpful in wanting to help us outside of this course in our future endeavours which was very kind. If you have the privilege to take a class with her, do it!
