Quality 1/5Difficulty 2/5
Decent amount of reading and ~200-300 words of writing per week and occasional discussion posts, plus a 6-page final essay. Prof posted one lecture video the whole semester, then proceeded to only grade 5/21 assignments even though she said she would have all our grades in by the end of the semester. Also she didn't respond to any emails.
