This course was interesting for one class. After that, it became extremely repetitive. Also very harsh grading for a first year seminar class. Way too much emphasis on citations and bibliography's as well. Feireisen will take off a lot of points if you just forget to indent your bibliography.
Super engaging and fun course. Its a great way to meet people and collaborate. Definitely learned so much public speaking skills which is super useful. Professor is super nice, and excited to be teaching this course.
I enjoyed the pace of the class, reading and discussing a play each week, even if I did sometimes feel a little pressed for time to finish a text in time. Class discussions followed a similar format each week: students assigned to characters and would discuss with the rest of class the motivations and experiences of their given character. The topics of the papers were, generally, interesting aside from one that felt blatantly like busy work. Wish class was a little less homogeneous and there were more breaks from discussions prior to the final project presentation at the end of the semester.
