Ethnic Conflict is a discussion-based seminar with very interesting readings and books. I really enjoyed the manageable workload and the quality of discussion in class. Professor Verghese is also so understanding while also challenging everyone academically, always asking questions.

I would strongly recommend this course to anyone interested in Indian history and politics! Prof. Verghese does a great job covering a wide range of content, which provides a critical foundation and context for understanding contemporary Indian politics. The readings can be a little dense, but Prof. Verghese breaks them down during lectures and explains new terms and concepts in a clear and concise manner. There are no exams for this course - just two reflection papers and a final research paper which are very reasonably graded. Overall, loved this course!

I have taken classes with Professor Verghese before and I really enjoy him. The readings each week are very purposeful in their intent and are easy to follow. Great senior seminar and Professor Verghese is a very nice guy.
