I love Dr.B. She's super accommodating and welcoming, and talking to her will boost your positive energy for the rest of the day. The class is heavily based on discussions, which connect closely to the readings assigned. All the readings are enjoyable and inspiring to read, and you can fully survive the discussion by only skimming them. There are multiple projects assigned in the semester, three big ones - research on memoirs, movies, and the final project, and several small ones - only need to post on the discussion board. Overall a good and fun fourth course.

Good class for learning about American TV history. There are about 4/5 discussion posts every week, with an essay due about every other week. Work balances out as there are no tests, still annoying to write on Saturday nights.

The class really revolves around reading material and learning how to write short summery paragraphs in a timeline from. I did not find the material super super fascinating, however, the skills you learning from doing the assignments, like writing effectively using little words are important. I thought the class was very fair or grading. If you tried hard and participated in class you should get an A. Dr. B is extremely nice and accommodating. I found her very approachable if you want to talk about anything. Overall, would definitely recommend the course if you are looking for those distribution requirements.
