Collegea 2 unit class i recommend taking if you can
holly! amazing human being and a standout gem in a world full of college staff. gives faculty and students a platform to come into lecture every week to talk to us about their story and ways to navigate ucsb as a new incoming student! one homework assignment at the start of the quarter, async midterm and easy final! gonna miss you holly :(
You get a time management assistant u meet with once a week and as long as u attend those meetings and lecture its an easy A bc the two exams are basically just rewriting the notes you take during lecture
class is an easy A but attendance is definitely mandatory. material isn't posted online so you need to take notes during lectures for the midterm & final. it teaches you about different resources at ucsb and helps you develop skills such as time management through weekly meetings w/ your tma. highly recommend this class to all students!
An amazing class that is very informative on practically everything there is to know at UCSB with an even more amazing professor. Holly is so kind and so helpful and wants you to succeed. I encourage everyone to take this class as it was an amazing introduction to UCSB and its not a lot of work and gives you some extra units Midterm and final r ez!
Ms.Roose really cares about her students and she is very open to all of them. Her backstory is very inspiring and she is always energetic and can really make a class come to life. The class was very easy and straight forward. There are weekly meetings with my assigned TA helped me alot with time management and studying. It's a great low unit class
