This class had a lot of reading, 70+ pages in under 48 hrs. If you love reading and literature then this is the class for you. If you donʻt like reading but wants to try something new, DO NOT TAKE this course. No hate, just it is a lot of work if you are trying to balance it with other courses that have a moderate to high reading. The other thing about this class is that you have to actually read and remember everything, because the test that you take at the next class will have obvious and very specific questions.

I really enjoyed this class. Our only homework was to do the assigned reading, then we would do a short quiz on the material and discuss in class. The discussions were really fun and interesting, and I loved how simple the class was (no exams, papers, projects, etc). I did feel that it was not very organized - participation was 50% of our grade but we weren't given a rubric or anything, and it was really easy to lose points on the quizzes. But overall a really fun class if you're okay with a lot of reading.

berg is not a very accommodating or enlightening instructor which is a shame for the course material. expect a lot of reading, quizzes at the start of each class that do not test on analysis capability but rather memorization. books are well-chosen but the courseload is intense and requires lots of additional reading time
