Really nice and funny teacher. The content was very interesting and kept me engaged and the work load was very light.

I only took this course for the DSNS credit but I ended up really loving this class. Prof Sin is a very nice guy and he definitely knows what he is talking about. Your grade in the class is based on three group projects (two 10-15 minute topical projects and one 20 minute semester long project) that are very manageable. There is no homework, quizzes, or exams, just the group projects. There are readings but I didn't read any and passed with an A+. He does take attendance, but the classes are also recorded on zoom just in case you are not able to join in-person. Overall, if you need an easy DSNS credit (or DSNL if you take BSST241) this is definitely the class to take!

omg the easiest dsnl if u take it with bsst241. theres only 6 assignments, 3 are presentations and 3 are just reflections for each presentation where you say what each person did. the presentations are supposed to be 15-20 mins but he'll give you a 100% even if they are like 5 mins. you also dont have to physically present, you just take screenshots of the slides, add audio recordings in the background and that can be your presentation. hes never gave a group below a 100% on any presentation. funny guy

Loved Prof Sin- really smart dude who's hilarious and super engaging. I would definitely recommend taking the lab in conjunction with this class. I signed up for this class not super into terrorism studies or CBRN weapons, and ended up getting super into the material. Take BSST240 and 241!!
