Winter 2025 - I absolutely loved this class with Professor Abrego. The class consists of two quizzes and a final annotated bibliography. The quizzes were easy if you read and attended the lectures, but I would say you could still pass them if you don't attend lectures. She gives you a whole layout of the class, so nothing is a surprise. For the quizzes, you have the whole weekend to complete them and a 2-hour time limit for when you do decide to take the quiz. Many students finished in less than an hour since there were only 8-10 questions. My TA was not present most of the time, so it was hard figuring out the assignments for the annotated bibliography on our own, but it was all doable.

Fall 2023 - This class is made up of 2 take home quizzes that are open note, 4 reading reflections, and 1 annotated bibliography at the end of the quarter (makes up a lot of your grade). Not many assignments but super easy if you go to class, do the readings, and understand the material. She records lectures but there is a participation part of your grade that can be made up with the occasional in-class participation. The one con with this class is the reading/content load. Expect 50-100 pages of reading a week and sometimes a 30minute-2hour long documentary. All the content is super interesting about social justice and issues in Central America. I learned so much and I am very glad I took this class.
