I am a CS major taking this course to complete the surveillance cluster in addition to fulfilling a gen ed requirement. I am generally uninterested in the content of the course, but as far as gen eds go, Dr. Johnson makes it really engaging and not too time-consuming overall. The first 2/3rds of the course comprise twice-weekly readings that you read before class; the vast majority of lecture time is spent discussing these readings, so at the bare minimum you do need to actually complete the readings. The last portion of the class is a group research project, which isn't amazing, but less work is required for this project than the one in HNUH238C. Dr. Johnson also grades everything fairly and gives thorough feedback on assignments within a week of submitting: this is something that you should not take for granted, because in my college experience so far, that is a rarity. No complaints about the professor, she is great even if you aren't super interested in what she is talking about.

I really enjoyed this class this semester. She is very passionate about the content she teaches and this makes it easy to participate, she really loves ecology and feminism and it shows. I would recommend this class especially if you have any interest in the environment in general, it was a fun class that fulfilled a HU gen ed which was a bonus. The class itself was very low maintenance which made the things we had to read very easy to engage with when we had to do them. I recommend this class!

She is, in fact, a really sweet person; however, the class content is very boring and redundant. She would give reading assignments that were due before class. This would include responding to 3 of her questions and prompting a response of your own. This wouldn't be too bad, but it is a fact that during class/lecture, we would go over the same reading. I wished she would talk about something different and relate that to the reading. But it is just the same information being presented, and it feels like a waste of time. Her class is very easy, though, so that's why she is getting some stars. I would not recommend taking this class if you are looking for an engaging lecture.

First of all, sweetest woman ever. She genuinely cares about you and your wellbeing (your weekend, your family, etc.). For the class itself, there were only two of us in it, so you HAD to make sure you knew the content. Before every class we had a reading to do where you just had to answer three posed questions and add one annotation (I got away with just doing this and not really reading the rest of the text). She is very helpful and honestly just really passionate about plants and feminism lol. Even though there were two of us in the class and I wasn't super interested in invasive species going into it, this class is actually super cool and not super time consuming. She is pretty lenient with extensions as long as you email her beforehand (but I wouldn't abuse this). There was one trip where we went to pull weeds on a Saturday morning (I wasn't super excited about this, but honestly it wasn't terrible). Overall, I think this is a great course to take and is covers a humanities gen-ed (3 credits).
