Goat, very good

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 :)

When I say get ready to read, I mean it. This class was more of a philosophy class than anything, and I put as much emphasis into that as possible. Professor Vagt is great, really tries to adapt her class to make it as best for her students as it can be. Practically gave us the midterm and final questions and if you do the readings, it's easy!

I struggled a lot in the beginning because it was a lot about philological concepts. The lectures have a lot of information, found it difficult to understand. I eventually got there by midterms; would recommend you ask questions.

Professor Vagt is passionate about the material and she wants you to succeed. You will build solid close reading / clit skills. She may seem a intimidating at first, BUT please go to office hours and talk to her because she's really sweet and will teach you a lot if you're intrigued.

Honestly I was quite lost throughout this class; however, the criteria is very straightforward. The reading is heavy and confusing, but her lectures are pretty clarifying. The professor essentially tells you the exact questions that will be on the midterm/ final and she offers guidance on your paper if you seek it. An easy A if you put in effort.
