The course was just not for me but it is not a bad course. The texts are very difficult to read because they are old, historical French texts, and in my opinion not very interesting. The essays are difficult but if you try your best and ask for help when needed you should be able to succeed in the class.
Papers and readings were hard, I won't lie. I really liked professor banks, she is really funny and accommodating, but she took forever to get papers back to us. Discussions were interesting for the most part. The class is what you make of it, and rewrites are offered for all papers but the final.
I took French 101 with Professor Munier(no option to review), and have really enjoyed the class! It's a very fast paced class, with tests almost every week. The topics also build on top of each other so it's important to throughly know previous material. Professor Munier is amazing though, and will help you every step of the way. She also begins each class with a French Meme!
