Participation MattersTough GraderSo Many Papers

This was probably the hardest gened course I had to take. In this course, Prof. Hardy makes participation essential for a good grade. There were also many papers required and a few tough exams. Despite all of this, Professor Hardy makes each lecture super interesting as she is very knowledgeable about the subject. I learned a lot from this class.

Lecture HeavyGraded By Few Things

This class is not really hard and you can easily succeed. You do need to write two papers and are required to read at least one book. I felt the workload was way too much for a Gen Ed and that the material was super niche and not "World History".
