CollegeI made an account to tell you to take this dudes class. I have taken Soc 101, 122, and now 128 with him, and consistent with his lecturing and class organization. There are 2-3 quizzes, depending on whether it is summer or normal quarters, and a paper final. Assigns reading, but I have never had to read to do well. Always good for makeup/extensions
Fav class this quarter. 5 essays that are 400-500 words but are easy and graded fairly. A midterm and final. Both are easy, just make sure to do the readings, go to class, and study. Turowetz is very chill and so knowledgeable. He lectures very clearly which is lovely plus he has straightforward grading criteria. Definitely take this class!!
Overall easy GE, 5 500-600 word essays, midterm and final. Essays are easy, if you study a bit for tests you'll easily get an A.
a lot of writing for the class, but it's doable. your ta is what really matters
I love Prof. Turowetz! He's very kind and helpful. His lectures are straightforward. 3 quizzes, 2 short analyses, and 1 final paper (a playlist or creative project). I found this class very accessible and easy. The final is enjoyable.
Lectures were a little boring at times, but Professor Turowetz explains concepts simply and gives many examples. It is clear how much she cares about his students and wants them to succeed. Midterms weren't too bad as long as you study. No cumulative final. Writing assignments were time consuming at times, hardest part is the TA's grading on these!
