Class I took isn't listed (Activist Anthropology) beware: For SJW's only. Entire class is based off of strong subjective opinions. Take the course if you'd like to visit crazy town.

I believe this was Professor Saldivar's first quarter at UCSB but she was great! The grade was based on weekly journals (300 words) based on the weekly readings, a final essay (out of class), and a presentation on one of the readings. She's an easy grader and cares a lot about the topics she teaches. She loves having conversations with students.

great professor and class

Prof Saldivar is really sweet and the material she assigns is pretty good (movies, books, news articles). She was a ridiculously easy grader who gave A's as long as you tried/showed thought. That said, the course was taught on zoom and she is NOT very tech savvy. Misposted assignments, lack of response to emails, out of date rubrics. Not amazing.

She's really like the most zen anthro professor ever. We used to meditate every 20ish minutes. She was super lax and let us take out own pace when it came to working on projects, and never gave strict deadlines. Only downfall is she's difficult to reach outside of class and does not give much feedback. But her style is unique and amazing.

Fairly easy class. Each Student needs to present twice(20% of class). Two-Three reading notes per week(40% of class) and one final project (40% of class). Its a sub feminist class with a big focus in women. The professor is very helpful and wants you to do well in class.
