Cynthia Packert
HARC
This class was great. There was a range of people in the class. Some people had grown up on Bollywood, some were Religion majors, and some were just going for a distribution requirement. The films were long at times, but incredibly engaging. There were a few essays, but they were graded pretty easy and weren't too long.
The class was really fun and Professor Packert is a very good teacher. She is very accommodating as well. Throughout the semester, she would assign multiple extra credit opportunities as well. There are reading every week and if you do the reading, the class is easier and you will be able to participate in class.
Cynthia Packert was a fine teacher, but her lectures were very boring. I did no readings outside of class, except to study for the very difficult midterm and I got an A. The midterm was the only test and it was very difficult. The final was a paper and was also very difficult. But outside of the midterm and final paper the class was very easy and I spent no time outside of class working on it with the exception of 2 or so small assignments. The discussion sections were fun and engaging.
