Professor Faier's cultural geography class is one of my favorite classes I have had at UCLA. The only problem i had was the amount of readings she makes the class do but they're doable if you know which ones to skim and which ones to focus on. Grading is ultimately up to the TAs. Grading can be either generous or strict. If you can get Sara Hughes as your TA, you're set. She's very helpful and will make sure you pass your exams.

Professor Faier is the best! She is extremely concerned about her students and how they do in the class, and has office hours regularly for us to attend. She is also willing to review homework assignments and tests etc.

The course consists of 4 double spaced 2 page reading reflections, a midterm and a final, and there are weekly readings as well. The readings are not hard (except for the Herbert one which is not really necessary to do). The TAs are also super nice and helpful.

Overall, I really enjoyed the class and recommend it as a GE if you want a light workload and are good at reading.

TAKE THIS CLASS. It's very informative and an easy A if you do the readings. Faier may seem intimidating at first but she is very receptive to student needs and concern. The content of this course was very unique and I feel like it really opened up my perspective on a lot of things. If you can get HEATHER AGNEW to be your TA. She is awesome.

This class is definitely not as hard as the reviews below would suggest. I was expecting a super difficult class that would take up all my time and that is NOT the case. There is a lot of reading, but she gives you a lot of time to do it, so it's not that difficult and most of them are interesting. The only reading that seemed like too much was the Herbert one. I did all the readings, and I would definitely recommend doing them all, but for some of them you can definitely get away with skimming them since she discusses all of them in class. I definitely learned a lot in this course even outside of the cultural geography concepts. She's a really good professor and it's really easy to pay attention in class. I would DEFINITELY recommend! Side note- you should really go to lecture because in my class people stopped coming and we were watching movies, so she put ALL the movies on the exam- easy for the people who went to lecture. The exams are definitely fair. Basically just memorizing terms and a general idea of what all the authors wrote.
