I loved taking this class. Not only was the material interesting, but the passion Professor Miller-Young has makes it even more enjoyable to learn about. Although attendance was not mandatory, I'd still attend because she elaborates way more than what's on the slides, and she is so funny and often goes on tangents and tells stories.
Always looked forward to going to her lectures even if they weren't mandatory. She is hilarious but very knowledgeable and passionate about what she teaches. Took her for both Femst 150 and 60. Classes are easy, just take-home projects and papers, no in-person exams. She addresses relevant issues and cares about the well-being of her students.
one of my fav classes ever!! great professor, very engaging during lecture and always did her best to make everyone feel hopeful during these rough times. the course is not hard if you keep up with the readings, and consists of 2 midterms (research project and zine/video) and 1 final (2 short essay and 1 long essay question). highly recommend
One of my favorite professors this year!! Miller-Young is very knowledgeable and engaging during lectures, always came to class with the best energy and a smile, and the class was not difficult! 2 midterms-- a research paper and zine/video project and 1 final consisting of 2 short and 1 long essay questions, and opportunities for extra credit.
I loved Dr. Miller-Young! She is obviously so passionate about her work and it comes through. We had three papers and TA's were very accessible for help making this class fairly easy. Sections usually went over readings and topics discussed in class so I recommend doing the readings or at least skimming.
This class was very easy. 1 research paper, 1 creative project, a final, and section attendance go toward grade and easy to get high grades in all of these. Lots of readings but i barely did them. Very liberal class obvi, as an independent there was some material that were not particularly favorable but they did contribute to the class. shes great!
She is the icon, inspiration, and driving force behind the feminist studies department. while not required, her lectures feel like ted talks and really get you motivated with the material
The funniest lecturer on campus by far, her lectures are so entertaining and she gives the funniest anecdotes. The class is very progressive but she makes the topics seem very comfortable. I recommend everyone take this class to learn about sexual relations in society. Miller-Young is so animated, Love!
I love this professor! She is hilarious and lecture was so entertaining. I only did about half the readings for the class and got an A. If you go to lecture you don't really have to read. Midterm and final were take home and pretty easy.
Very sweet! You can tell she cares about what she's teaching. There is a lot of reading, I read around half of it all and still got an A. You're basically only graded on section attendance and the few writing assignments she gives.
easy course as long as you take notes, 1 midterm and 1 final, both very easy and taken from home. one oral history project, time consuming but not bad. overall very welcoming environment and my favorite professor at ucsb so far.
You do the readings and work hard on exams and paper and you will do good. Classes are in lecture format, so it was boring. Discussions are okay but more work. In class, she said a scholar who she didn't agree with her was dumb. Disrespectful.
