Sina Lee WMST200 Expecting an A+ Anonymous 03/26/2018	I took WMST200 with Sina my first semester at UMD and now I'm a Women's Studies major. The class was wonderful, well-organized with great readings and appealed both to those who came in with no background and to those who were already interested in the subject. I hear she defended her dissertation this morning, I hope it went well!
Ruth Zambrana WMST200 Anonymous 04/30/2011	This class was one of the most horrible classes I have ever taken. I am counting the minutes until its over. The amount of reading is unbelievable, and I had to put all of my other classes on the back burner just to keep up with the work. Not to mention the fact that the work consisted wholly of being unbelievably racist towards white people, demonizing any person who has money, and hating on the U.S.A. any chance they could get. This class was horrible because of the amount of work, and that I had to read every single night about how I was the devil reincarnated. This class literally taught how AIDS was created by white people for the sole purpose of eradicating blacks and furthering the white societal goal of genocide of minorities. Oh, and granting abortion rights to women also furthered the white goal of genocide. Essentially, every achievement made by women, such as granting abortion rights, was spit upon as racist against minorities. You had to study an unbelievable amount of reading for each exam. The class had two exams, and two large papers. This is not a bad review solely based off of my grade. I got an A. But my grade is rare. Alot of people failed the midterm for writing their own views. After the exam was graded the professor literally spent 10-15 minutes of class discussing how it is not possible to be racist towards whites. And that some people mentioned racism towards whites on the exam, and that this view is wrong - which ultimately contributed to them not receiving points. (I had the sense not to do that) I got an A because I wrote about how horrible white people are, how democracy is an illusion, and how I am actually unconsciously racist even if I don't realize it. Not to mention how America hates all minorities, and how all white people of european descent are actually satan and systematically oppress every type of person known to man through our "unearned status" based upon a highly flawed, and false system of meritocracy. Essentially, if you are willing to lie through your teeth, and hate on every aspect of America and yourself then take this class. I went into this class a democrat and a feminist. I came out a republican, and anti-feminist.
