Spring 2023 - I absolutely loved PA 70. Prof Manville is a great lecturer and just an overall great guy. For all of the graded assignments, you argue both sides of a certain controversial topic. This was really interesting because you get to choose a topic that actually interests you and that you feel passionate about which made it really easy. The lectures themselves are actually really interesting bc you learn about different persuasion techniques and how they have been used in past real life situations. You don't need to take notes bc you'll never be tested on the info, it's just interesting to sit and listen. Discussion is really chill, most of mine would get cancelled, and my TA basically just walked around and gave us help when we needed it or answered questions. This was my favorite pub aff lower div and I would HIGHLY recommend it!!!

Fall 2020 - Professor Manville is a very straightforward professor and I learned a lot about economics in the context of urban planning. He is friendly and helpful, particularly during office hours. He is receptive to student feedback too. I would take courses with Prof Manville again.
