CollegeI LOVED THIS CLASS! My favorite so far here. Professor Garcia is amazing and passionate about the subject. All of the TAs are helpful and bring in their own experiences. Cate was amazing and prepped us super well. Not too much homework, but attendance is mandatory. Essay midterm and online final. Good for those interested in European theater.
I loved this professor and also shout out to the TA's they were super kind and helpful!
Professor Letty was genuinely the best professor I have ever had. She's so helpful when it comes to this course and you can tell she actually cares about her students and loves her job. Never not wanted to go to class. The TA's are all super helpful as well. Just be prepared to read plays the day before and listen during lecture.
please please please take this class, from a fellow student. taking a different GE right now and I can't emphasize how good I had it in this class. I genuinely got an A+ in this class just by attending class and doing the readings, which are somewhat interesting even tho I'm not into theater!
Great professor so far!
Easily one of the best professors I have ever had at University. Caring, helpful, engaging, and lenient. All of the above. I for sure recommend this class for anyone looking for a GE to complete.
