If you want to take this class, prepare to take very far away field trips (that you need to walk to) and do a lot of busy work. She also assigned a required a mandatory meeting on a day that we did not have class. She seems to have to regard for any of her students' time and I would not recommend taking this class.
THE BEST FAMST96 PROFESSOR OF ALL TIME
Cares about the subject and truly makes it engaging and entertaining. Went into the class not expecting a ton or to enjoy it but really glad I took it. Would def recommend OC to any Famst majors or someone needing an upper div
Paper heavy class. Lectures were informative and interactive. The films watched were actually interesting and she gave plenty of examples and clarification for any questions. Tough grading policy but normal for FAMST 96.
To get an A in this class you have to take your time withe every assignment, as they were multiple forum posts per week, one your research, the 2 others were replies + answering q's about the weekly movie and super short readings (like, 5 pages). Participation (required) came easy with our topics. Knowledgable and caring prof, I felt super engaged.
Feel bad that the only review here will be a bad one, but I need to be honest. I really wanted to like her bc the subject was interesting, but Damluji made everything difficult. 2hr long camera-on zoom classes were boring and redundant, time-consuming participation work and self-reflection that was not necessary, confusing rules for group projects
