Fall 2025 - The lecturer was Harold Torrence. I loved this class -- it was supposed to just be a GE, but it was so so interesting. In terms of workload, there are two analysis papers that are 1200 words long; the research took some time (like 1-2 days) but overall the papers are not unreasonable at all (and the TAs graded fairly!). We also get weekly open book quizzes based on the online lectures. The midterm and final were also not difficult at all if you paid attention to the lectures.
