Spring 2023 - Great professor, great class! I am from her Chin 70, which is about the traditional Chinese literature. Her lectures are very engaging and interesting, and the workload is way less than other GEs, so not only can we genuinely learn stuff but also do not suffer endless essays. Will surely take her classes again! Wonderful experience in spring quarter.

I have no real complaints about class with Strassberg. He shows a lot of videos, so prime seating is a must. He is truly passionate about gardens in China, and he will take time to answer any question you may ask. His tests are a bit too easy \361 just a handful of multiple choice questions, and double that quantity for the final. There is also a paper to write along with the final, but as long as you use your imagination and follow the examples in the course material, you\355ll do fine. Questions are mainly taken from the readings and videos, and a little from his own Power Point lectures. Stay awake and take notes, so if you make it a policy to sit in the front every time, you\355ll do great.
