Fall 2020 - Professor Alma was super accommodating and understanding of students needs! I really enjoyed how she didn't have any midterms and didn't stress note taking during lectures, but listening, to learn how to be a better activist and ally. Really enjoyed this class and strongly recommend as an easy, interesting, and useful GE!

Summer 2025 - At first, when starting this class, I thought I was going to be informed about something great about Chicano culture, but instead, I am always hearing this professor brag about himself for the whole lecture. I can't even talk in the lecture because he will kick me out! He kicked out former peer learning mentors for the class just because they were talking to each other. Worst of all, the slides aren't even posted online. I would never take another Chicano class if it's him teaching it. The lectures are very unengaging, and it's most of the time, he paraphrases the slides. The work is manageable tho.
