Comment:
This class was fairly easy as she didn't have any tests. She did assign a research paper. If you can get through that then you're golden. She is very strict (almost unreasonable) with attendance so don't miss any classes or be late. I would not recommend a 3 hour class with her

Super boring. Shes nice but keeps the discussion very dull and each class discussion ends up being the same.

Class is boring as all hell and she doesn't quite inspire you. That being said, she is very laid back, her class is extremely easy, and she tends you end the class early. Who doesn't love that?

Comment:
Very subtle Indian accent that isn't too annoying. She is fairly laid back and has a simple Q&A style lectures. However, she lives through her TA so speak to the TA before Rao. Otherwise the class is fine.

Well she was hardly ever there, doesn't take attendance, doesn't bother to learn your name or know students. Depends on her TA for EVERYTHING and relies on movies to teach her class. You just sit there watch her slides and movies and listen to her speak. Boring, pointless class about common sense. In the end, she gives okay grades.

She is the only professor who will show lectures of other professors on video to kill every class period aside from that with two papers due it is a very easy class.

the textbook is miserable she tries hard to explain and nice about it but I cant stop from falling asleep just looking at the cover. I could enjoy the class more with a different textbook. films are great.
