I took Poli Sci 149: American Political Geography with Hui. I highly recommend Hui, for she is one of the most caring, dedicated professors at UCLA. She truly cared about student learning and was willing to help every student in any way possible to succeed in her class. Our grade consisted of 4 homework assignments/policy briefs (15% each) and a final (40%). You definitely had to put reading time and effort into each paper, but she was more than happy to help you and give you hints. If you put the time in, you got a good grade. As for the final, the exam consisted of 5/10 identifications, 5/10 short answers and two essays about connecting themes and analyses of the course. If you went to class and paid attention and studied a bit for the final, it was very possible to do well in this course. Overall, Iris Hui was an amazing professor. She was so fun to listen to in class, lectured on interesting topics and readings, and was 100% dedicated to her students. In the end, 80% of the students received a B+ or higher in the class. However, I think the students' success in the course was a direct result of how great a professor Hui was. Take her, you won't regret it!!
