Professor is average at best his problem is he does not elaborate on the readings in lecture, he merely dictates the articles and summarizes. The readings aren't that bad, but some are long and you can basically just skim through it because he goes over them it DETAIL in lecture. The mid-term was kinda a pain, but i got a B on it and still got an A in the class, so pretty much its an easy GE. take the class but don't expect to learn anything extraordinary or be entertained.

the professor would be average i'd say. even though this was just a GE, i really learned a lot from his choices on the reading list and got me thinking in a different perspective. i agree with other people who said the professor was repetitive- if he can fix that, his lectures would be a lot more effective. i did fall asleep a couple times, but that was totally my fault. workload is indeed a bit burdensome, but if your heart is into the topics, it's a no biggie. just keep up with the readings, and go to office hours. your TA is muy importante. get gonzalez. she knows what she's talking about and prepares you well for both midterm and final. i think i loved the class because of her.
