ENVS2 . 3 Months Ago

Took her in the summer and we had a smaller class of around 25 people. She assigned a reading and it was unclear when we were supposed to read it. When she asked in class if we read it and no one raised a hand, she got very mad. Online midterm + final with a cheat sheet. 2 "essays" that were max 500 words. Very easy class, but she's...interesting

This class was alright. Definitely my least favorite out of ES 1-3, but Professor Murray is super kind and clearly passionate about the topics she discusses. Although the workload is easily manageable, the course focuses mostly on writing aspects with weekly reflections and essays that can be quite annoying. Online midterm and final were clutch.

Very considerate and interesting professor. Talked a lot about current topics in ES which I appreciated. The three field trips are interesting ways to switch up sections and learn more about ES. Weekly writing projects can be tedious but fairly manageable. Laptops are not allowed in class unless you have DSP. I suggest saving the slides to an ipad.

I loved taking this class with Professor Murray! Attendance began to be mandatory towards the end of the course. She assigns a lot of busy work but it is definitely doable. I think the TAs genuinely carry the class as they are so helpful and friendly. If you have the opportunity to choose your TA, pick Michael! He's the best!

The course itself is very easy and has the midterm and final online. Lecture was not graded but section did need to be attended because of group projects and field trips
