Professor Stussy is the man! The assignments are regular but easily manageable and doable. He was noticeably passionate about his lecture material and was formal while being very friendly. There are three short essays, two of which are flexible, that are not difficult as long as you attend his lectures and read a little. A great and convenient GE.
He is passionate and incredibly knowledgeable about the content and the course is designed in a very student friendly way. Very easy as well as fun GE.
