Dont listen to the person who uploaded for the fall 2025 quarter even though its still spring 2025. You can't blame a teachers grading outcomes based on a harsh TA. I had the same T.A. Campbell, and you could've requested feedback from them for future assignments. The in person exams were literally multiple choice and short answer and open notebook, so if you wrote notes during lecture and from the slides, the answers for the questions were right in your face. If you're that type of person who can't go to class for certain reasons, then what did you expect... If you had reasonable accommodations, you could've actually asked him to send previous lectures he had recorded from other years.

Quarter: Fall 2024
Grade: N/A

The prof is extremely clear and detailed during lectures. He’s really laid back and wants to share his passion/knowledge with you, so he’s very engaging to listen to. We only had 1 midterm (multiple choice with a couple free response questions that can be answered with a couple sentences) and 1 final (only multiple choice questions). There are 2 or so assignments where you discuss a social issue of your choice that the TAs grade but they’re super lenient, and you turn your two assignments into a final slideshow presentation. The prof assigns readings, but you’re fine not doing them as long as you attend class. The exam questions are solely based on the material discussed in class and very few will cover the readings, but the content overlaps so you can usually guess the answer on those questions. Also you get to use any handwritten notes on exams including the final! You are not allowed to print readings or typed notes, but anything written with pen and paper is fair game. The prof is honestly so chill, and he is genuinely informative about the subject so I highly recommend taking the class with him as an easy GE or a way to get extra units
