This was the last class I had to take for my linguistics major, and it really made me question all of my life decisions and truly made me feel that I was wasting my time here on campus. You'll spend 7+ weeks talking dragging through lectures and exercises on JUST pronoun binding, and the textbook is quite a difficult read, so it was really not helpful for me.
The class is doable and Dylan is super nice, but it's just not worth the time investment unless you're really interested in semantics.
This was a nice course. Pretty much the entire course revolves around creating semantic trees with bindings and lambda function denotations. Ironically, I found that my knowledge of syntax (for the trees) and CS (for the functions) prepared me more for this class than 120C.
Participation matters in that if you don't go to class, you won't know WTF is going on. My B was a consequence of that (oops). The professor is very helpful though, and does a great job of walking you through what you don't understand.
