Spring 2024 - This class goes through many different iterations, so the curriculum really depends on who's teaching it. When I took this class, it was an environmental justice and art-making class--however, much of the curriculum and activities felt very removed from the issues themselves, and it was often hard to connect with the material in a meaningful way because of that. While the premise of the class is in theory a political one, the actual discussions we were having in class felt very vague and not grounded in anything tangible.

I actually took WAC 2b with her and she was a great professor. Do parts of the readings so that you can talk in class because this is 25% of your grade. The rest of your grade comes from two projects, the 1st is extremely easy and but the 2nd is a 12-15 page paper. The only good thing is that she is a very easy grader. I would recommend her if you willing to put in a little effort for an A
