Janna Bianchini HIST328G Expecting a C Anonymous 02/15/2024	I know this is being graded while the semester is still new, but I need to write about this class cause I am loosing my mind. So this prof decided to upload an ungodly amount of readings on Perusal the second the add drop period seemed to end, and the whole class is discussion based, which is wild for a history class. She seems nice, but since this is not my only class, and we’ve hardly gotten an explanation on how to get good grades, I cannot recommend anyone take this class right now.
Janna Bianchini HIST328G Expecting a C Anonymous 02/03/2024	It's literally only been 2 weeks and yet I feel like I'm about to go crazy. Since this was an upper level class I was expecting a harder workload, however, I wasn't expecting a workload that borderlined sadism. She assigns 124 pages of reading to do, and then two days later expects the class to read 91 pages. Attendance seems to be mandatory due to her discussions. In her discussions, you have to participate unless you want to get a bad grade. I would honestly be fine if I had to do 100+ pages of reading since I'm a fast reader and if this was my only class, but I have other history courses with many more readings. So, I suppose you can take her class if it's going to be your only one and you're really passionate about it, but otherwise, don't. Professor Bianchini herself does seem nice though, just her workload is absolutely ridiculous. No matter how kind a professor is, if their workload is overwhelming to the point of dropping your grade, it's not worth it.
