The workload in this class is particularly low. Despite a minimal amount of reading the grading is incredibly harsh. The class is not anywhere near as difficult as one would expect from such a harsh grader. Essentially you will not have much work yet you will be scrutinized to an unbelievable standard.
Tropp is engaging and highly knowledgeable. He is a tough grader and holds students to a high bar with their writing in particular. His tests are not specifically challenging as long as you prepare for them.
Professor Bennette was an excellent professor and clearly cared a lot about the subject matter. She was very effective in guiding discussions, and lectures helped further the understanding of readings. The class was not too difficult, as long as you kept up with the readings and attended the lectures. Lectures did not have powerpoint for the most part, so paying attention in lecture was important.
