Alexis Mychajliw
Alexis is so amazing!!! Materials in Mammalogy were really engaging, and students get to do a pop-up museum exhibition as their final project which was really great for learning science communications.
This class was a really broad overview of environmental science and can be pretty boring at times, although Alexis was super enthusiastic about the material and tried to make class more fun. Not too many readings, no exams, and the problem sets were not too bad. The lab and lecture can at times feel like completely separate classes, but individually both were pretty interesting and we were able to get out into the field a lot.

I found the lectures disengaging and labs were mundane a lot of the time. The concepts are pretty straightforward, and I feel bad for any sophomores and juniors who have to take it for their major, as they probably already know a lot of the material. Class participation was low and because slides were posted afterward, many people were not paying attention. Labs were fun when we could go out into the forest for sampling, and I'm sure ES classes, later on, are more engaging and exciting.
