Winter 2024 - Love love loveeeeee this class. Davida is such an amazing professor, and she does such an excellent job of making the class material both accessible and engaging. Especially in what is basically an intro to theory class, she manages to challenge students with difficult (but interesting!) readings while also being a very encouraging and helpful instructor. The prompts for papers are very open-ended, interesting, and honestly fun to take on--she really does encourage each student to make their own unique contributions to every class discussion, which makes this course a very inclusive and enriching space.
