Daniel Fram

There was a lot of face paced dense reading for this course. We did about a book a week, although this information is super important and very interesting the speed of the course doesn't really allow for students to correctly engage with the material. We had weekly quizzes and discussion questions which as much as a pain they are help you pay attention to details in the book. Lectures are long and can be boring but Fram is very engaged in the material and when he is interested and he is always very interested it helps being in class. He truly cares about this subject and I think he is a great professor this is just a very fast paced class.

I really enjoyed this class and prof Fram. The class consists of one paper that you have to read aloud in discussion and defend, and two exams. The Midterm exam wasn't too bad because it only covered 3 books, but the Final exam was really hard because it covered every book we read that semester, which was at least 8, so make sure you actually read them. Fram is really passionate about the class, which becomes really infectious and makes you care. Attendance isn't mandatory, but I would recommend attending all classes because of the exams. Lastly, I will add that if you have an accommodation, Fram will accommodate, but very begrudgingly.

Fram is clearly very excited about political philosophy which did make his lectures more engaging. If you attended classes and took detailed notes you should be fairly well prepped for the weekly quizzes, however the final was quite difficult as it was cumulative and there are a lot of different authors to keep track of. The essays are another large part of the grading system and Fram is very helpful with these if you attend his office hours.
