Sujata is an AMAZING professor who is so kind, passionate, and smart. As someone who had never taken a gender studies class, so many of the things that she said were things I'd never thought of before. I'm not interested in Gender studies at all and won't be pursuing any more classes in it, so the material wasn't my favorite. Talking about the care work system isn't something that I've ever done before, so it was interesting. The class is made up of three different projects where you create a story using the information in class. This was my favorite part of the class. You get to be so creative and apply the information. If you don't get something in class, it's ok because you can focus on the thing that you understand. You have to annotate the readings so you have to do them, but you can read the majority of it and understand what the concepts are. I enjoyed it and would take another class with her if I was more interested in it.

I took this course out of personal interest but without much experience of public policy nor gender studies, and found the course challenging but enjoyable. The research part of the final policymaking project took a lot of time and confusion for me personally, but Sen. Hardy was really helpful when I went to her office hours. The class discussions could go somewhat more insightful and structured, and the quality of feedback one receives on their created policy for the final project is largely dependent on the engagement of their peers. Overall this is a great experience getting familiar with the policy making process at the state level, and the guest speakers invited to the class & the event opportunities were a real blast.

GSFS0191 with Laurie Essig2 months ago

It is clear that the professor genuinely loves this class. The lectures really help clarify some of the information in the readings if it was hard to understand that week. Papers are graded incredibly lightly, with most students getting 100s. The only real issue I find is that you have to turn in notes every day of class, which is tedious
