Prof. Rupp is an extremely easy professor; her class has iClicker, but as long as you do an alright job on the take-home essays, you'll pass this class no problem. She's a super cool person, so definitely take one of her classes, but honestly. her Powerpoints are completely useless.

Loved everything about Rupp's personality. TA was Lauren Clark and she graded easily considering everyone seemed 2 get A's on the papers (or we were all just really smart!) Lots of writing, but all on interesting topics!!! Take for a FUN class!! Wishing I had this class again, learned so much. Lots of laughs too :)

Rupp is a great lecturer, lectures are mandatory but you will want to go, material is always interesting. Grade consists of only essays, 5 I believe. Depending on the TA this class can be an easy A, I have a 100% in the course.

By far, one of my favorite classes taken at UCSB. What an intelligent, interesting woman. The books were actually very interesting, and the several short papers weren't too bad. There's a lot of freedom writing-wise. Love her.

This class is interesting and has good readings. She is a great lecturer and open to hear all opinions.we watched a bunch of films and she takes attendance based off Iclicker participation

Leila Rupp is a sweet, funny, and intelligent woman. She is always nice and available to help. Basically, she's awesome!! I'm very grateful to her for her wonderful lectures, which were funny as well as instructive and interesting. She opened my mind to new issues I never considered. ps. The drag queen show was amazing!!

Go to class. It's easy, but you know, it depends on the TA. I had Tracy and she's wonderful! Read and write well and you'll do fine.

A great, very nice and understanding professor. Reading is interesting, assignments are not difficult, and the prof graded easy in my honors section. There are no tests, just papers for the midterm and final with pretty easy questions. Also you get to watch lots of documentaries during class. An intersting class you won't need to stress over.

I was really interested in the topic at first, but the class ended up being nothing like I thought it was going to be. I absolutely dreaded going to class every day. Her teaching style really bothered me. The only perk was that she had a really adorable dog!

leila is SUCH a great professor. i love her and our whole class did. she knows her stuff, is always so excited about talking about the readings (interesting stuff, too!). she's really nice and i just love her!

She is a great professor! You can tell she is very interested in what she is teaching, tests are fair and if the reading is too much she might cut some out. Both classes were very good!
