Spring 2025 - This class is great and I love Professor Potts. I would take every class with her if I could. Grade is primarily based off of midterm and final which are fair and she gives a great study guide for. Lectures are interesting and course material is cohesive and interesting. This class has similar themes and focus as her Global Studies 1 class, with more in depth study of certain topics. I recommend this class if it fulfills one of your requirements!
