Dr Franco is the best professor I've had the fortune of knowing at UMD. She cares so much and is so understanding. Her class may have been easy, but it also taught me things that I will carry with me throughout life. When I was having a hard time, she took time out of her day to meet with me and offered lots of support, which is not something that professors usually do. I wish every person in college had to take her course because it is so insightful and useful. The coursework is not heavy; there is only one assignment that took up a great deal of time. If you have the opportunity to, TAKE THIS COURSE. And participate every day.

Dr. Franco is so sweet and passionate about the topic and it really shows. She's clearly very knowledgeable about the topic, which does mean some lectures are a bit research-heavy, but she explains it pretty well. The homework is usually just assigned readings, and there are a few slightly bigger projects, but she gives you enough time so that it's manageable. As you can guess, there is A LOT of socializing required for this class because she's always having students or TAs host events, there are often getting-to-know-you activities during class, and some assignments make you talk to people outside of class. I am a bit of an introvert so this ended up being extremely overwhelming to me, but if you want to get to know more people, you'll probably benefit a lot. Regardless, the class is still a very easy A if you need that honors credit.

Dr. Franco was one of the sweetest professors ever. No phones were allowed in her class but honestly the class was so engaging and hands on that I did not feel I needed it. It was a great way to relax from my difficult STEM coursework. I really enjoyed this class and looked forward to it every week. There were a lot of readings but the discussions in the class were actually so insightful. Highly recommed Dr. Franco and this class.
