Winter 2026 - Omg, please for the love of god don't listen to the negative reviews. like yes bros lectures were boring, yes the weekly note assignments were time consuming, but guess what, it's literally so manageable and EASY. I dont think yall really know what a bad professor is because Professor Guzman was pretty chill and his class set up was good too. like 40% of ur grade was the weekly note-taking assignments, and then 40% was section/lecture attendance and 20% was final paper, but guess what HE CANCELED THE FINAL PAPER, so that was a dub. all we had to is come to class and do our hw for the note taking assignment, all u fr gotta do is write your own opinion or describe the quotes u selected with other topics or analyze it. Like literally thats it. You just annotate, thats it. and yea it was annoying bc sometimes i would end up writing like 20 pages worth of notes, but bro its so easy. like yea you'll prolly have to spend like 2 hrs on the assignment, but ur grade is literally just showing up to class, and then 2 hrs worth of note-taking. i dont understand why people complain about this class. please just take it, you will like the class, plus professor guzman shows some cool films and documentaries

Fall 2024 - The main course load is taking notes on long, somewhat interesting readings. I easily maintained a 100% in this class until he graded participation. If you miss more than 4 classes you get an automatic 0 in this category. This was not listed on the syllabus. He also did not grade my final paper.
