O'CONNOR A M
Her lectures are so interesting and u can see this professor love what she is doing. A lot of weekly readings, need it foe a final
She was alright but not great. Course definitely leaned left even for a public university. TA matters a lot with a wide range of grading toughness between them.
Mandatory lectures: write-ins required. She is clearly very knowledgeable, but I rarely stayed awake. The content leans Democratic. Sections have too much discussion. All exams are in-person blue book. The final is harder than the midterm. Not an easy GE for international students.
Expect to read often. Lectures were incredibly informative and I enjoyed the professor's passion on the subject. Tests can be kind of difficult if you didn't read all the readings in detail, but spend a good amount of time on the course and you'll be okay.
very passionate and great lectures but her wording of questions for exams, participation questions, and papers were so confusing
Although an under division course, expect heavy studying for in-person final and midterm exams. Expected to memorize source authors and evidence. Great professor, super knowledgeable and funny, but not an easy course if you're not used to reading and memorizing information.
