Disregard the course option I listed. I took AAS187C with her, the Hmong class as people like to call it, and I was not completely satisfied. While Bays is knowledgeable on the topic based on her past experiences, she fails to cater to what the students expect from the course, let alone an Asian American Studies course. Granted she is an anthropology/women's studies teacher, a lot of her lectures are drawn from her background knowledge from those fields. I've come to realize that I really detest anthro from taking her class. If she ever does teach this course again, I would take it for the sake of learning (slightly) more about the Hmong people... however this has to be one of my least favorite classes within my major. Her lectures were pretty dry, and we honestly did not even talk about the Hmong most of the time. She is pretty cold during class, but I hear she warms up more during office hours. Give it a go if you'd like.
