If I was to recommend one class I have taken so far, it would be this one. Professor Zenios is a very engaging lecturer who clearly cares about both the students and the material. Class is usually made up of a short presentation at the beginning, followed by small group and then class discussions. Professor Zenios will sometimes ask you to elaborate on your point or offer a counterarguement, but he does so in a way that doesn't discourage students from participating. The readings themselves are a bit lengthy and dense, especially the more theoretical ones, but I found them so interesting that getting through them was not an issue. Everything we covered felt like it made sense with the overall theme of displacement, and the spread of genre and type of media from article to fictional short story to poetry to documentary were all engaging and interesting. Professor Zenios also offers extensions for both the midterm and the final paper with no reason required as long as you let him know in advance. Overall, this class is fascinating if the topic interests you, the workload is manageable, and Professor Zenios is a wonderful professor.
