Class was confusing but professor is super kind. She genuinely cares about students and will give you good feedback if you ask her for help. There were def times when the readings/assignments confused me... but she was helpful during office hours.

There is weekly homework, but it is graded on a turn in/not turn in basis so do not worry about the amount! It is pretty confusing but grading is designed for everyone to do well. Not like other CLIT classes, attendance is mandatory, but she is pretty interesting. This class is meant to be confusing and it is!

this class was probably the worst class I've sat through since being here. I could see how it could be interesting to others but not what I was expecting for a comparative literature class. Hard to stay engaged and she has a hard time with tech. seems like she cares and is nice but just make sure ya'll know what you're getting into.

Prof Vagt's class is awesome because she has material to provide if you want to get in depth but it seemed also the people who weren't super into c lit didn't struggle to complete the course. she provided both online and synchronous lectures for the split quarter which was great. gives a lot of constructive feedback. definitely recommend!

Best professor I've had at UCSB. She picks very interesting reading material for the students and leads very thoughtful discussions in lecture. This class definitely made me have a better appreciation for comparative literature. I like how she is open to multiple interpretations in her essays. She is also a lenient grader which is super nice.

super chill, super kind, friendly/understanding to every student. mandatory attendance but she gave us 3 free passes as long as we emailed. clearly passionate about her work! TAs rock. yes you can do absolutely nothing for weeks and easily get an A by putting in a day of effort for the midterm/exam. dense philosophical class but very engaging :)
