I found this course to be slightly too unstructured in it's form. I am so interested in the course material but the class discussions felt shallow and aimless and about half way through the semester I wasn't motivated in any way to do the readings and engage.

This course is very hard to get into in my experience so I took it as a senior, which is a bit odd but still fun. There was typically a lot of reading in a range of difficulties but skimming it usually sufficient if I was short on time, I only felt I should have read more when we had to write papers (maybe 2 total) and it was clear I didn't really understand something. Otherwise, pretty easy to get by without doing a ton of work but the content is really interesting, from current theories about land back movements to the puritans settling america and how that influences how we view "nature"

Overall, this class was not difficult. There are two midterm writing assignments that are written over the course of 6 weeks and one final assignment. If you keep up with the work every week, the midterm writing assignments should not take you long at all. Overall, there's lots of reading, but no busy work whatsoever.
