This professor was awesome and imo too nice. It's supposed to be an easy-A class, but I felt I personally didn't gain as much from the class as I could have. Respect the subject / be interested if you're taking this class!

I really liked prof Holmes! she was really sweet and cares about students grades. we have 3 outside performances (2 downtown 1 on campus) which were kinda annoying but they were pretty entertaining. we had maybe 3 online quizzes (one which is the final) fully open note and easy. very easy GE!

Dance 45 was an easy class but sometimes boring. Must attend three performances which were miserable but class has no homework other than 1 one-page essay analyzing one of the performances. Mandatory attendance based on iclicker but overall very easy class and highly recommend as a GE.

Class is an easy A and she knows it. No midterm or final, but you must attend 3 dance performances (and pay for them yourself) and write an essay about 1 of them. Attendance is done through iClicker which is geo-located to the room. Holmes is very particular about late work, but that typically isn't an issue as assignments can be finished quickly.

3 mandatory performances that you had to pay for ($60 total). iclicker questions every class and had geolocation so you have to go to class. No final but 3 quizzes that are all open note but VERY specific so take good notes on her lectures. She's very passionate but very strict and not accommodating to students that have conflicts with performances

didnt like was that absolutely ZERO late work was accepted and that you can't make up any work even tho its just a GE class... but the work is definitely doable and pretty easy. quizzes/"exams" open on the weekends which was so inconvenient, didnt understand why she made them open on fridays/saturdays. shes very passionate and a good lecturer tho

iclicker attendance and 3 mandatory dance performances in Downtown SB which were very annoying to have to attend (sometimes on friday or saturday nights). Otherwise class is very easy and extremely easy to do well in.

This class is an easy A for sure. It is participation based and there are mandatory performances but these are honestly not a big deal. iClicker is easy to work around and the opening and closing questions are fairly simple, although sometimes graders can nitpick (ChatGPT saved me here). Pop quizzes sometimes but lots of ec opportunities.

Very easy class. You have an opening + closing question (grader can sometimes be nitpicky), 3 exams (open note + online), and 3 performances (you must attend + pay for, was around $60 total). For one of the performances, you had to write a 1-page paper. I wish she touched on Latinx dances. You can tell she's passionate about dance.

Participation matters in this class as there is an iclicker and opening and closing questions for our participation (open for a certain time). She also made us go to dance performances (3) and write a paper on one of them. There are 3 quizzes based mainly on the slideshows, one being the final, and does pop quizzes but are very short and easy.

She was a little lost, considering it was her first quarter at UCSB but she did great. It is a very easy class and would recommend. You do have to attend 3 performances that you have to pay for yourself but it was fun.

3 quizzes (3rd one considered final), all were open note. Had to attend (and pay for!) 3 dance performances to attend outside of class (2 were downtown), though they were all enjoyable. Prof Holmes was really nice and reasonable. There were also opening and closing questions every lecture but they weren't difficult. Would definitely take again.
