Spring 2025 - Took this class hoping for an easy upper div elective, and it was WAY more work than I thought it would be. For the midterm, she gives you a study guide with 40 terms, 4 essays, and a map of all of West Africa to memorize, and she can test you on literally any part of it. Took forever. Also, the mid quarter essay is upwards of 10 pages, and she grades tough. Wasn't an overly hard class but took up way more time and effort than it should've. Also, her lectures are mind numbingly boring, but she grades participation, so you have to show up.
