Spring 2020 - Your grade depends on your TA. I had Sal, he was really cool and helpful. Also, this class covers books, movies, image galleries etc., it's not too monotonous. Grade: Attendance 15% Discussion Sections participation: 15% Gallery project 15% Paper 1: 25% Paper 2: 30% Prof. Goyal herself is cool too. She's knowledgeable and the issues discussed in class are pretty relevant and current. You don't need to do all the readings 100%, just focus well on the ones you'll be writing about.

She was amazing.People found her intimidating because she was extremely organized, prepared, intelligent and well put but I liked her. She is calm and soft spoken.Her lectures never went on tangents or got lost; she always made her point, had evidence to back up her arguments and referred to page numbers multiple times. Her office hours were great: you could sit and go over anything and she would repeat and explain until you understood. Her midterm was wonderful! The study sheet was EXACTLY like the test. By studying off of it, I was 100% prepared! There are no papers in this class!!! YAY! The midterm and final, plus attendance, make up your grade but the material, lectures, and study guides help you through them. I recommend her because she really cares about her students. When she got stuck in Ireland, she posted videocam lectures. She had movies for us to watch and articles/essays to read. Very, very pleasant person!
