Holly Allen

Prof. Allen is the sweetest. She is very accommodating and the course is not too difficult. I personally didn't find the topics super interesting but the actual class was so chill it was a nice break from the rest of my classes. Most of the time she lectures in class from a presentation and there is some group discussion. There is also a decent amount of group work and presentations. Prof. Allen is so nice and chill seriously. No complaints except it was a little unengaging sometimes.

Holly is an awesome professor. This is a great course if you're looking for an easier class to fill your schedule. We had 1 paper and 2 group projects the entire semester which were easy to get good grades on if you tried your best.

Holly Allen knows her stuff and her class can be incredibly interesting. Classes are all the same, do 1-4 readings the night before and fill out a discussion post (only 6 out of 24 possible required a sem). She will then lecture on the topics in the reading, calling upon those who filled out the discussion post. Sometimes the classes can seem long as it is largely lecture style, however if you are curious about the topic you find the lecture interesting. Holly knows what she is talking about and provides really insightful thoughts and ideas. She created her own website for the class where you will find all of the material. On this website you can also find a reading guide for each class she has created, this reading guide is just summarization of all the readings for the day and can be incredibly useful if you don't have the time to do the readings. All of the assigned papers are interesting and not long, she is not a harsh grader. I would take another one of her classes.
