Fall 2024 - Absolutely despised this class, but I think it is because I am not much of a politics person and got really bored of lectures + reading to the point where I just stopped doing the readings. I'm sure a lot of my peers enjoyed this class a lot, and to me it wasn't too difficult of a class, but DO NOT take this class if you are not passionate or remotely interested about anything related to the namesake. It will become a LOT of work and mild suffering if you hate it, and only take this class for the credit - I don't think it's worth the extra GE + writing II credit.

Winter 2026 - Incredible class with every lecture being extremely interesting and different from the last. Each week ties into the next, but with different professors taking on different perspectives, the class is much more engaging than a singular viewpoint. A great way to learn about data with respect to justice and society (like it mentions in the cluster).
