Fall 2018 - If you do all the readings there is kind of a lot, but the professor doesn't test you. The readings are just there for you to write your essays. I did ok on the in class essay and well on the final paper (not in class) as well as on the project. The subject is interesting most of the time. She holds office hours before the paper is due to give everyone feedback which is nice. Overall, a the professor is pretty fair, but the grade breakdown only rests on like 3 assignments lol so could be risky (I would recommend viewing the films as well. It helps you come up with something to write)
