Honestly such a great professor. You can really tell she is passionate and cares. I loved this class and she did an amazing job! Definitely would take her again.

Your grade is highly dependent on your TA. My TA was an extremely harsh grader, but I was able to still get an A. Attend every section since it's a huge chunk of your grade.

She seems like she really knows what she's doing. The only reason I wouldn't take again is because I'm not all too fascinated by archaeology, but if you are looking for a professor who deeply cares about what they're teaching she is the professor for you. Definitely take her courses if you enjoy archaeology.

Clearly very passionate. Easy GE if you don't mind writing a lot but obviously it's for writing credit. Your grades depend more on your TAs than her. The quizzes are online open note and pretty much word for word, same with the final.

High-participation class, and not necessarily an easy GE depending on the TA you get as they can grade papers pretty harshly. Quizzes are mostly word-for-word on lecture content, and they're open-note. No midterm, but 3 papers which require research outside of class. Online open-note final. Professor is super passionate and considerate.

Very nice and great lecturer. I genuinely enjoyed having her. 3 quizzes heavily based on weekly reading/videos. 2 midterm essays 1000+ words each (online). Final was composed of 3 shorter essays (online). Do the readings and attend lecture and section and you will do fine.
