Fall 2022 - Professor Armenta was great. She was a really good lecturer, even when the material could be a tad bit boring (most of the time it was actually pretty interesting though). Didn't hate it, didn't love it, but it's required for public affairs and I liked it well enough. I definitely learned a lot about qualitative reasoning, which isn't something most people have ever used before since quantitative methods are always seen as more "scientific." Also shoutout to my TA John for being so awesome.
