ANTHRO 100
Quality 3/5Difficulty 2/5
Prof. Kusumaryati was an okay lecturer. I felt her lectures could be kind of boring, and many people stopped going to class. The exam didn't feel like it reflected class directly. Every week there are readings that you have to write about for discussion. There is also a project for the semester. Grading is relaxed. Overall okay.

New class and slightly inexperienced but clear presentations. Grades nicely and very helpful. Readings aren't necessary to do, graded by 2 presentations and some essays. Attendance is mandatory. Overall a pretty strong professor unluckily placed in a brand new class. Easy on the workload and engaging material.

Anthro 104: Prof is really chill and actually cares about what she is teaching. No one cares for this class and barely anyone goes to lecture tho. TAs grade everything. This might be the most free A you will ever get at Madison. Do your work, and exams are easy (2 attempts). Don't need to go to class and you will get an A, just don't be a bot.

Anthro 104 isn't really a good representation of how a professor is, but Prof Kusumaryati was nice. Good lectures and you could tell she cared. No one in our class really made an effort, so did feel bad for her. TAs grade everything. You have to be a bot to not get an A. Exams weren't straightforward, but they're online/at home with 2 attempts.
