CHST184A consisted of weekly reading, questions, blog discussions, and essays. A lot of homework but no studying needed!

This class will test your self-discipline. The professor will not give you homework regularly. Regularly watching weekly readings and videos can help you get through midterms and finals. There's not too much pressure.

In this class Professor Hernandez gave lectures in class about the books and the Chicana writers. Some guest lecturers were included too. However, I did most of my work with my TAs. The TAs helped the most with the papers and preparing for the midterm & final which were take-home. Class was not bad, but not as interactive with professor.

Class itself wasn't too bad, grade consists of 4 papers and a group project presented in section. Lecture can get boring and isn't really necessary since the essays are based off reading. Hernandez can be condescending and will cut off students at times, especially if what they are sharing isn't something she agrees with.

Completely terrible. The workload she assigns is inhumane. She expects you to read 100 pages in a single day, with questions on the reading due the very next day. Grade heavily depends on your TA. Lazily rehashes old material. Boring, outdated content.

Absolutely awful. Inhumane the amount of work she gives. She expects you to read like 50-100 pages in ONE DAY and the very next day those reading questions are due. Wouldn't budge on the grading policy until she was hounded by hundreds of students. Depends on your TA but they make or break your grade.
