As an Economics major, this Cluster genuinely got me out of so many physical/life science GE requirements. This class was honestly super interesting and Dr. Friscia was a really good lecturer. He was very passionate about the subject and was always willing to answer questions in class. He did lecture off the slides, but he always added some activity and class discussion into his lectures which made them less boring. Lectures are not mandatory and are recorded which was super nice. The labs for this cluster do not even go with one another, so expect to be doing completely different labs than what you learn during regular class lectures. Overall, I recommend this class as it was pretty interesting and not very difficult.

Cluster 70B was an incredibly fun quarter where you revise aspects of evolution that you've learned before and also learn a lot of new information. Overall, content is decent, quizzes are biweekly and based on content taught in lectures. The class is recorded, and my favorite point is that there is no final exam, you submit a final paper after selecting a topic out of several choices at the end of the quarter. The paper is 4-5 pages, and double spaced. I enjoyed this class and would definitely recommend as a GE!
