Spring 2016 - took this class with Karlan the last time he taught it.. its no longer enjoyable and easy. He's changed his grading scheme so that class was much harder for us. The above grade distribution is over a year old.. so don't be fooled. Definitely wouldn't recommend this class, you'll have to work your a** off for a B

I took his Project Management class for Spring 2011. It was pretty straightfoward-- 3 papers, one due in the middle of the quarter, the other 2 due by the end of the quarter. I thought the class was pretty easy and straightforward-- you only meet once a week for 2 hours (even though you're scheduled for 4). He lectures on Project Management (the material can be a little dry at times), does a workshop where people get into groups to come up with ideas, and gives you slides. The papers are a little tedious, but so long as you do them through the quarter, I think it's very manageable and easy. He also allows you to submit papers up to 2 times before it is counted as a final draft. I think this is the key to getting a good grade-- do this, listen to his feedback (usually an email response given a couple hours after you email him), and ... that's it. You don't even REALLY have to go to class (by the end, many didn't), but I felt it was pretty interesting so I went. Highly recommended for an easy class and a fun and kinda badass professor.
