Tanya Byker
I found Professor Byker to be extremely engaging and inspiring. She is quite clearly passionate about the material covered in the course, making the course even more enjoyable. Two exams and one final project make up the bulk of the work (along with weekly problem sets).
This course is a very easy A. Unlike other easy As, I felt like the material I was learning was important. The lectures were interesting and engaging, and I actually looked forward to the readings. I'd recommend this course.
This course is one of my favorite classes I have taken at Midd. Heavy reading as we had readings every class but they were valuable. Professor Byker was extremely enthusiastic about the subject and were very accommodating to everyone's needs. 100% recommend.
