Spring 2025 - This class met from 9:00 to 10:50 AM on Mondays and Wednesdays. While turning in handwritten class notes at the end of each session felt a bit tedious, it definitely helped encourage consistent attendance and engagement for the class. One of the best parts of this course was the live performances, every performer brought incredible talent, and it made class time genuinely enjoyable and exciting. Overall, this course is a very engaging and manageable A+ if you keep up with the assignments. It’s structured to reward participation and consistency more than test-taking, which helps reduce stress while still promoting learning. Grading Breakdown: Weekly Class Notes (15%): Submit in-class handwritten notes after lecture and weekly summaries (275–300 words) via Bruin Learn. Conversation with a Scholar (5%): Read one chapter and prepare a thoughtful, open-ended question. Concert Review (5%): Attend/Watch a live concert related to the course and write a 300–350 word review. Student Presentation (15%): Present on a topic of your choice in agreement with the TA. Discussion Participation (20%): Actively contribute to weekly discussions. Final Exam (10%): Taken on the last day of class.

Spring 2024 - I took this class during spring quarter to fulfill my visual and performance GE and it was super fun and one of the easiest GE's I have taken. The professor is very understanding and he offered 10 points extra credit. His grade breakdowns are evenly distributed. There was no midterm and the final consisted of a one page front and back essay over something regarding to the course content that was completely up to you to chose. Lectures can get kind of boring since they're almost 2 hours and the professor would walk around class with a microphone asking for opinions. During the last class the UCLAtlan mariachi performed which was pretty cool. Overall this class was super fun and very easy, I would definitely recommend it.
