Quality 5/5Difficulty 3/5
Thea's class was very straightforward. If you give the effort, she is more than willing to help and rewards those students. She is one of the most approachable professors I have met on this campus.

Quality 3/5Difficulty 2/5
This class is easy as long as you show up. The majority of the grade is made up by in class work, short homework, and one group project. Overall the amount of time spent on homework is very minimal. The class has a guest speaker for the first half each week and is group work for the second half. Overall, not a bad class to pick up two credits.
