A ton of work, took up all my time and energy. The material she teaches is good, but the way she teaches turns me off. She takes all she teaches very personally and is very biased at times. She basically tells you what to write in your papers. Her quizzes often require you to remember one sentence out of 3,000. Other than that, the class was okay.
Professor Chang is amazing! She can mumble at times which makes it a little hard to understand but shes great! Midterm and Final are take home papers. Just stay open minded and attend lecture even though lecture seems pointless at times, but she gives pop quizzes so go to class. I got an A and I recommend it.
Prof. Chang is nice, but lectures were totally useless except for being there for the pop quizzes. Don't be afraid of her, she is only intimidating for the first few classes. It's totally OK to disagree with her, she respects her students' opinions.
I enjoyed the class and Grace was great. She was in your face but in a good way. The class was interesting and changed the way I look at things.
well this is a great class that forces you to think, not too hard either... It's too bad the professor kind of kills her own cause by reversing the discrimination she teaches about onto groups of people who have not really been been victims of much discrimination historically.... And she loves it!
She was a little too typical angry feminist for me. The material in the class was extremely interesting though, I learned a lot. Makes you view women and poverty through a whole different scope. She will try and weed out people on the first day by saying it's a really hard class but it really isn't. Three short papers and pop quizs, that's it.
Lots of work for a lower division class. Don't take if you are looking for an easy quarter. Interesting material, but Grace is just plain crazy!
Very interesting class. She's not easy but she will make you learn a lot, and if you go to her for help in her study hours she will really help you out.
Awesome class! Prof Chang teaches about very important topic and allows everyone a chance to voice their opinion. Great teacher, great class. Students just need to be willing to think critically in order to succeed in this course.

She's great, passionate about the class and content. She's all about awareness and reality. If you don't want to hear the truth about racism, sexism then do not take this class. It makes you reflect on a lot of things. She's the perfect professor to be teaching this class. Avoid taking Krista Bywater as TA, try to take anyone else available.

Grace Chang knows how to teach a subject like this. The format isn't structured tests- but essays, discussions, and reflections. You will be so much better off if you take a class with her. The point is to get something out of it, not to fill out 100 question scantrons, which is awesome.

Grace Chang is one of the best professors I have ever had. She is extremely passionate about what she teaches and researches and it really influences how active you are in the class. I highly recommend taking any class she teaches.
These classes have been among the most eye-opening I have ever taken. I appreciate Grace's realness. The issues presented challenge critical thinking. There is some overlap in materials but this is the kind of material that one should not visit once, rather many times. The issues are deep and complex and I have yet to meet anyone who just gets it.
I agree with all of the material the Grace presents. But it is hard to take the class seriously and put forth a lot of effort because she uses the exact same books/readings/lecture notes for all 3 classes that I've taken from her. And she is constantly late (sometimes up to 20 minutes) to class which is a huge waste of my time as a student.

i love wm st classes and she is the worst professor i have ever had
she taught they exact same class as wm st 60 she didnt even have the decency to change the readings. she is a horrible prof. and it was a waste of my time attending her class. unless you have to do not take a class with this woman
Grace is an excellent professor. many students are hearing the harsh truth about their beloved country for the 1st time and therefore react negatively to the whole course. she does not ask anyone to agree with her-and she always backs up her arguments.
