The professor seemed passionate about the topic but graded things months after the fact; I got my grade back for the first essay 15 mins before the deadline for the second essay (each essay is worth about 30% of your grade and she's not an easy grader) Also she never put any of the slides on canvas and would give instructions for the essays in class that she never put online. Homework varies from a single 7 page reading to multiple 25+ page readings and hour-long videos that never come up in class. This class was boring and stressful, avoid if you can

Professor Winslett is a great professor and a lot of students like him. The readings for this class are a bit intense sometimes as they are very long and knitty-gritty, but it is super important to do them for class because participation is part of the grade.
Jessica Teets is probably the best lecturer I have had at Middlebury, she is extremely engaging and easy to follow. I knew absolutely nothing about Chinese politics before this course and Teets was so great at teaching the content. She knows so so so much and is always willing to talk to students about the content as well. She is approachable and such a pleasure to talk to. She assigns a lot of reading but most of it is interesting and pretty useful to the course.
