Prof. Yang is really friendly and she cares for the students. Lectures are long and sometimes a bit boring but her slides are clear and easy to follow. She is willing to answer questions from students from an unbiased angle. Grading depends more on your TA, but the exams are pretty fair.

She's very knowledgeable in her area, so talking to her during her office hour can help students interested in cultural study (and ANTH, perhaps). The lecture is a bit boring but all information you need is on the PPT, which makes exams fairly easy. I will see her courses are very beneficial for people loving Asian culture.And her dress style slays

Very easy class. did not do any reading cause the TA was very nice to conclude everyting from reading. Extra credit was watching a opera. She is a nice person but sometimes very stereotypical of how China is right now.

This class is CHIN 32 or RGST 32. Same thing, just can enroll under either. She is a nice lady, her tests are mainly essays, but she gives study guides and adheres to them. Although attendance isn't done by iClickers, she sometimes gives pop quizzes but they're easy. Not hard to get a good grade if you study.

People can have different opinions, and she listens very carefully about our questions and opinions. She has really been helpful and was in her office hour every time.

SO MUCH READING. But other than that it was a pretty easy class. The Mayfair is a pretty chill, funny lil lady. Showing up to class is mandatory but she posts lectures online anyway. Downside- midterm and final were mostly essay questions so my hand was hecka cramping by the end

So much reading is involved in this class. She is a bit technologically challenged which can get a bit old. You have to be on top of your stuff for the midterm and final! If you work hard you can pass without a doubt.

Lectures were boring, but available online. Reading is basically required in order to do well on midterm & final. LOTS OF READING. Wish we had gotten more preparation for final. Grade based on midterm, final, group project, & attendance. Class is hard because of so much reading and difficult midterm/final, but work hard and you'll probably pass.

Pretty chill class and attendance wasn't checked until the last few weeks or month of the quarter. Very boring lectures. Her slides were very useful study guides for the midterm and final.

She's a cute little lady willing to help if you ask. The lectures are boring and a bit unclear but read her lecture notes and you'll be fine and be sure to at least skim through the readings. Expect a history class not an anthropology class. She offers extra credit opportunities and a very generous curve. Try and you will pass with flying colours.

I incorrectly wrote EACS 125 in my last review - this is EACS 150. Anyways, after the midterm, I realized although she's boring as hell, her tests aren't bad. You MUST do all the readings and read her lecture notes if you want to do well though. I've gained more respect for her after learning of the work she's been involved in.
