Winter 2016 - Afrikaans 40 was honestly the easiest GE I took. There is quite a bit of reading but what is nice is the fact that the readings are fictional rather than a textbook with technical material. For each reading he'd ask for a one page response, literally could be anything. And the final paper was a 10 page paper on any topic of your choosing.
