  • Never received a mark or grade in this course once, prof has you evaluate yourself and propose a grade at the end of the term. A collaborative course as he had the class decide what we wanted our midterm project to be. Never spent more than 10 minutes a week on this course, readings are very easy. A lot of focus is put on really learning the material, you think a lot about yourself and how you fit in during this course. If there is something you really want to explore relating to sex and gender you will have many opportunities to do that which is very nice.
