    "comment": "If you like book clubs and history, this class is for you. Read three books over the semester with some added readings. Professor Shubert is very passionate but some of her lectures have politics in them. Might depend on what your class topic though. Grading is pick your own grade then complete the list of assignments under that grade track. ",

The films and readings were engaging and inspirational. I like her contract grading policy. It encourages me to learn with motivation and enthusiasm without overstressing or anxiety. ",

Strict but unclear requirements, lots of reading which was fine but it never felt like Professor Shubert knew what she was doing. Could be a good class but with a different teacher.",
