For a introductory class, you will be fighting for your life. This class indirectly requires a pre-requisite in 2012 Tumblr and Wattpad tropes and fanfiction. Also a chronic late grader.",

From what I saw, communication with TAs didn't always seem very respectful. Exams were very long (6+ hours, 10+ pages). Definitely a great class to push students away from G&WS. ",
