Took in summer 24. Professor was fine but the TA was AWFUL. Spent so long on my essay and met with TA to discuss & check I was on the right path. TA was useless, referred me to the rubric, and didn't want to have a conversation. I was just hoping to build rapport since it was online. The quizzes also dropped my grade a little but beware TA grading!

Wonderful lectures, I truly learned so much. The workload is relatively high but manageable, and all of it is actually really interesting. If you have an opportunity to take one of her classes, definitely do!

Prof. DasGupta is wonderful. She has a lot of experience with hands-on activism. All assignments were writing projects and he is very accessible outside of class. You can email her drafts and she will give you feedback. Most lectures are based on his experiences and class discussion. Lectures get more fun as more people engage in discussion.

Good professor who really makes you think. The course is very reading heavy but you can get by from just skimming (I don't recommend it but I did it so lol)

She is a trans studies scholar in South Asia. There is a lot of global transgender identity readings for the class. Reflection writing, book reviews and a final project. I loved that he used Zines & creative materials. Professor is very supportive of students and funny too

Easiest class I have ever taken and will ever take. Every assignment was some kind of writing, 4 1-page reflections, 1 2-page book review, and a 4-page final. I am a horrible writer but got a 100% on everything and in the class. Section is "mandatory" for a grade but it really just depends on your TA for grading.

Professor DasGupta is super nice however at times the class became a little unorganized which can be stressful. Overall he made good points in lecture but not a great job of clearly connecting back to the readings so a lot of the denser readings were a little confusing. Still an easy class as long as you meet with your TA to go over the assignments

The professor's cool. Lectures don't pertain to the coursework but they still are very interesting. Enjoyable readings and coursework.

I wouldn't take a class again under this professor again because she was very disorganized, particularly towards the second half of the quarter where she'd show up late more often and didn't even let us know when he decided not to show up to lecture one day. Overall, her disorganization really affected the quality of this class.

We had to make stop motion films!! the group dynamics at times can be weird. Prof.DasGupta managed us all and we completed the projects. Loved reading Amber Hollibaugh on LGBTQ history.

Prof D is very friendly. His lectures at times can be difficult, but there are videos, films, visiting speakers that helps. Loved making the Zines that helps connecting your experiences with the content

Bad irresponsible instructor. Barely give responses. Gives random bad grades
