CURRIC 292
Quality 2/5Difficulty 1/5
Though she is very passionate about her work, classes seem to take forever and she is NOT nice. Your grade relies solely on a powerpoint and paper at the end of the semester. Honestly the class is easy, but she is not helpful outside of class nor is she kind. She will send passive-agressive chats in zoom if she thinks you're not listening.
