Winter 2020 - This class was fantastic. When I took this class, Dr. Shapiro taught the first half and Dr. Allard taught the second half, and I absolutely loved this class. Dr. Shapiro had a great understanding of antibiotic resistance and environmental racism, the topics that the first half of the quarter touched on. The class wasn't difficult and was very informative. It's very interdisciplinary and great if you're interested in healthcare.
