Dr. Grant is a great professor. She is very knowledgeable about the topics in the course. The course can be a bit reading heavy at times, but the reading isn' t hard. The class is discussion based so attendence was required,but it was a very enjoyable class. She is a very easy grader as long as you put in a good effort.Rate My Professors ↗

I took this class for an ethnic studies credit and found it somewhat difficult. It was very difficult to hear her during lectures. The tests were quite difficult and included random data and facts that were only ever talked about once or in the readings. Two writing assignments, my TA was a harsh grader, but overall they were easy enough.Rate My Professors ↗

Boring lectures but very generous grading. Not a hard A if you show up to class.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 3/5Difficulty 3/5
Required lecture attendance. Class was not difficult, easy writing assignments but you need to really understand the material for the exams. She is a nice person but her lectures are hard to hear and she goes through the slides very quickly. Slides don't have all the needed information, but if you pay attention in lecture its not a hard A.Rate My Professors ↗
Quality 2/5Difficulty 3/5
She's very knowledgeable about everything she talks about, but it's hard to stay engaged during lecture. Two short papers that weren't too difficult to complete, but midterm pulls out random stats that were only mentioned in lecture or readings. Very nice when you talk to her one on one but material overall is just very dryRate My Professors ↗

Professor Grant is very knowledgeable and I learned a lot of helpful information from this course. There are a lot of dense readings and participation acitivities but nothing too overwhelming. The two group projects at the latter half of the semester were loose, fun, and engaging. Lectures were informative and comprehensive but could drag on.Rate My Professors ↗
