EGMT 1530

#StayWoke was also taught with Professor Schmidt. For an engagements class, this course required constant work. The midterm and final, both of which are presentations of the topic of your choosing, were graded pretty harshly. Both professors want students not only to learn about social movements, but really apply what they've learned to their own causes. You need to be an expert on your issue because they will ask you every single possible question about it, and if you can't answer it, they'll essentially embarrass you. I personally enjoyed reading about these different social movements, but classes were basically lectures. One person from each group would present what the group discussed for the week, and then the professors would spend the next hour talking between themselves about the topic, without allowing for any engagement with students. Two discussion posts every week, and you have to show you really engaged with the material. The material is interesting, but the structure makes it pretty boring. It's not a difficult class, but for an engagement, it's way harder than it needs to be and it's not an easy A. #tCF2020
