If you're nervous about taking Professor Littlefield, don't be. She just started teaching PLCY100 again after a few years and it was great. The class is run like a discussion, she starts off with some slides to review the textbook readings and then jumps into a class activity that either involves you moving into groups to craft and argument, or talking with the class about a policy issue. The only consistent homework the class requires is the reading journals every week which is just four questions and is really a grade boost than anything else. There is one midterm exam which is pretty straightforward, a group presentation, and a policy memo (which you work toward the whole year and is 6-8 pages double spaced). Otherwise, your grade is based on participation which you can get through speaking in class, or by posting on a discussion board in canvas. As a professor, Dr. Littlefield is extremely genuine and very nice. She tries to make policy interesting by getting our opinions and using real life examples. She is very understanding and can read the room quite well. Towards the end, she will bring in guest speakers which are great for forming new connections and possible internships. This was one of my favorite classes. 10/10 class with a 10/10 professor. |

She's very nice and very enthusiastic about public policy. I also got lucky with a really good TA. There was a final paper and a final presentation, and I thought it was pretty reasonable. She loves people who raise their hands and participate. Overall not a bad class with her if you go to the lecture and discussions and do the homework. |

I love Dr. Littlefield so much. She is absolutely my favorite professor. She cares so much about the students here and the class is fair and manageable. I'm taking another class with her because I love her lecture style. |
