Fulya Pinar

Professor Pinar is very professional in anthropology discipline and is very passionate about the topic she is teaching. The course requires reading of the assigned readings and group presentations, but overall it's very diverse, ranging from ethnography to comic making. The final project involves actual enthnographic process of interviewing and synthesizing, which in my opinion is very helpful in gaining insights to how anthropology is done. Would definitely recommend and I would love to take another class with Professor Pinar.

The course is very content-heavy in the beginning and a lot is expected of you early-on. Adjusting to her style of teaching and the weekly discussion posts can be quite challenging, but becomes very manageable and fun by the end of the semester. We had two papers and two presentations. The class really feels like a welcoming community by the end of the semester. You'll learn a lot that you didn't expect!

Prof Pinar is so passionate about the subject which made the lectures very interesting. Everything was always explained in depth and the projects, even though challenging, provided valuable insights into the course material. There is a TON of readings for this class but I enjoyed most of them and you can totally get by just by skimming them. Prof Pinar can be very strict at times but is usually happy to accommodate.
